The Free Market needs a change.

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.

Try playing any other online game and you'll see that people make money just fine with search systems. Just because everyone knows the current price of an item does not mean you can't make money on items. Markets change all the time with fluctuations in supply and demand, and manipulation in the hands of crafty and rich people. This even applies to real world markets. Any perceived loss in profit by the loss of the ability to force the one guy selling an item cheaper than you all the way to Ch5 Fm17 is easily made up for by the greatly increased speed of buying and selling items. It would be much more interesting to see people making money by smart purchase decisions instead of lying to noobs all day.

Spot system just sucks and is way outdated. Maple is freaking 8 years old and predates WoW, which in the world of MMOs is equivalent to "prehistoric." They should not be ashamed to copy some features over.
