Due to many players using the MTS as storage, the MTS has experienced higher than expected traffic and has become a burden on the game's performance. In order to reduce these 'bogus' listings on the MTS we are raising the base transaction fee from 100 NX to 500 NX. However, to encourage legitimate use of the service, we are lowering the percentage transaction fee from 10% to 7%. What does this mean for you as a MTS user?
Old System
Sellers Price Transaction Fee Buyer Pays 15,000 NX 100 NX + 10% of 15,000 = 16,600 NX
New System:
Sellers Price Transaction Fee Buyer Pays 15,000 NX 500 NX + 7% of 15,000 = 16,550 NX
We believe this change will help discourage abuse of the MTS as well as reward legitimate buyers.
Items that were listed under "For Sale" and "Wanted" will be sold with old transaction fee even after 7/28.
Items under "Auction" and those you "Buy Now" will be sold with new transaction fee even if the items were on MTS before 7/28.
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.
