The Free Market needs a change.

I think it's time for Nexon to really do a complete overhaul of the FM. (Has it ever changed?)

Here are some ideas I had that I would like to share that I think would make the whole FM experience much better.

1) I know it's a pipe dream, but it would be great if Nexon just scrapped the idea of Owls. There should be an NPC in the Free Market Entrance (like next to Frederick or Scrooge) that will do a search for items very similar as if you were using an Owl. Of course there will be some limitations like you can only do 1 search every half hour or each search costs 50k mesos, something along these lines. I know I'm very cheap but I can tell you right now I don't think there would be anyone complaining that Owls were no more and searching was free. I think many Maplers would very much appreciate this change, because it is mind numbingly slow to browse the FMs if you're looking for a particular item. It's very time consuming and boring.

2) Each FM should have and invisible grid. Meaning you can setup your shop/merchant on the particular part of the grid. This makes the FM look much more neat and uniform and as well stopping people from taking up 2 spots.

3) One thing that I would be great to see is different FMs selling particular items. For example, if you're looking to sell this great dagger you scrolled, Setup a shop in the "Thieves Weapons FM". Or lets say you interested in buying some INT earrings, take a look in the "Mage Equips FM". Something that I noticed in my server is there is something similar to this. It seems FM1 CH2 you can always find Summon/Magic rocks, Ores, DM/Orbis scrolls at a cheap price. It seems the maple community has an understanding that this is the place to go for selling these items. Now only if the Maple Community can establish where other items should be sold that would be great for selling so Maplers know where to go for fast and easy service.

Also, it wouldn't hurt to give the FM a big makeover. It's a bit dull looking, but that's my opinion.

If you have any ideas you would like to share, post em.

1) This is the worst idea I've ever seen. It'll kill the merchant. You will find it very hard to buy and sell later for profit, if every one know the the price and where to buy. Imo, this thing will do a huge damage to the economy. And I think it's very exciting to find a good deal my self, who care if you're so lazy (just buy owl)?

2 & 3) You found it funny here, bcoz it's Free Market, it's not Super Market.
A guy can take 2 spot, bcoz he was there first, and wanna save a spot for his friend. Then what's wrong?
I dont think every one just need to sell one kind of item at once. Then you'll tell us to set up many shop to sell all of them (with few items in each shop)? Well, then just give us nexon card, you'll have what you want.
