- Players can put up items for either a "live bid" or "blind Bid" or "buy it now"
- Live bid means that everyone can see the bids being made

- The visibility of this is up to the player who puts up the item for bid, unless the auctioneer forces one or the other
- Players can set a "minimum" and / or "maximum" for the bidding
- Setting a minimum bidding amount means that unless bidding reaches that amount of currency, the item will not sell, and all money will be returned
- Setting a maximum bidding amount will make any items that gets bids over this amount to immediately be sold to the bidder who made the bid to reach that amount
- The visibility of this is up to the player who put up the item for bid, unless the auctioneer forces it to be visible or hidden

- When a player makes a bid or buys an item it will automatically subtract the money from them
- If they are outbid, they will get an option to add to their current bid to outbid the current highest bidder
- If their bids are successful, the auction house will list the item they can withdraw, otherwise, it will instead display a button to withdraw their money
- Players can continue to bid up until item close time
- When an item is put up for sale, the player will set a time that the bidding process will end (integration with simple calendar)
- When an item is sold, the server takes a fee, which is customizable in the auctioneer's settings
- Auction house should have a search bar and category filter

Could you expand on what features are needed for this?

I'll take this commission; I've started a rough outline of the UI:

P.s. Will it be possible to click on the item and check the actual item sheet? Cause some custom items might have special descriptions or attributes, or have item with magic flags etc
Yep!

Some progress!
Still trying to work out how to best allow people to bid on items. My initial instinct was to put the currency inputs where the character currencies are displayed, but it's already a busy area.

That was a thought, but it might be slow and frustrating.
It wouldn't be selecting the item, it would be selecting the item and clicking bid in the bottom right corner
Maybe under the item when selected? Like when you click on an item in the character sheet inventory.
Or a dialog..
