Something has to be upfront to discourage people from attempting to abuse the system somehow.

The listing fee is fixed, different for Auctions, and Fixed Price listings, and the sales fee is 8% of the price the item is sold for if  the  item has a fixed price, and 5% for auctions. Taken out of the coin value paid by the buyer.

Auctions are now fully functional, and they can remain on the market for anywhere between 1 hour and 2 weeks,  and
there's currently no reserved price system, so be careful what you make the initial bidding price on auctions!

Also, the in-game market viewer just opens a webpage in a panel to the market page here on the forums, but unfortunately I haven't found a way to have it automatically sign you in,  so you need to sign into your steam account on the forums in the panel to access it in game.

I will most likely make a completely separate system to access the market database in game, rather than just link the webpage. But it's not exactly needed for now.

I also plan to have all Fees taken from the market go into a global database, and do monthly or bimonthly giveaways, or some kind of lottery system. That way, the coins wont technically be spawned in, they are currency that were already in the economy at one point.

Listing AND sales fee?
That's certainly gonna make me only Sale stuff in chat.
Well, OK then.
But What about the public beta release?
