::'''[[Bashiok]]:'''I think the "dump everything into a trade window" was awful, I'm sure the designers agree, and if there's a desire to look at someone else' items then there needs to be a way to do it properly.
Jay Wilson shared a bit more of the team's philosophy on trading in a press conference from Blizzcon 2009. [http://www.planetdiablo.com/community/events/blizzcon09/reports/d3pressqa.shtml]
::I can tell you that going into a [Battle.net] chat channel and spamming it is not how it will work. [Laughter in the crowd.] I can also say that creating trade games that get lost in this endless list of other games is also not going to work.
::We're going to have some kind of trading system - It could be an auction house; it could be a way to trade items over Battle.net more easily. We don't know exactly what that's going to be. It's probably not something that's going to get decided until we do some serious work with Battle.net.
::We consider Diablo III a game all about trade. The best items are acquired in Diablo through trade whereas in [[WoW]] they're acquired through raid. So given that, it really moves us to facilitate a really great trading system.
