Remember the time?

Remember the time when trading took place in the East Commons Tunnel ? I was just reminiscing (sp?) about my first days on original everquest, and I always remember searching for the 'tunnel' and then when I found it being stunned by all of the high lvl 45's and such with their crazy gear, auctioning off crazy items I had never heard of like a Skull shaped barbute, and that uber godly item, the FBSS ! *faint* LOL .. it's been a while but i'm just curious if anyone recalls these situations? when traders were real traders, and good talkers, and beggars were inventive and festive .. if not annoying hehe.
Just a thought, I played on prexus, the trading spots were prolly different on other server, but were there any unique trading spots on your servers ?

kindest regards,

i played on Morden Rasp, and the biggest trade zone like everywhere was the bazaar... but ppl who couldn't access it traded in POK, plane of knowledge was a good place to sell things fast.

He's talking about trading prior to Shadows of Luclin.

Good times though. About 90% of my time there was spent merchanting, it was very fun figuring out the market and all that jazz. Once Bazaar made an appearance, I was completely lost and didn't feel like learning a completely new method of merchanting. I quit shortly after.

I was a beggar in the EC Tunnel and I remember I played a lvl 8 necromancer and someone gave my necro pet a Weighted Axe and my pet was hitting for like 86. Then I got buffs for my pet with cleric and shaman with druid DS and that was truely what I loved about the past in everquest. Back when everyone wasn't uber after playing for 3 weeks...
