        I've been thinking on this today, and expanding on what I originally
        wrote, consignment based trading is sounding better and better to
        me. I don't just mean in the DAoC context, but more in terms of
        multilevel trades encompassing multiple participants.
        
        Let me give an example, Exporter A reports to his guild, and looking
        at the contracts board spots that someone wants 300 bat ears
        (perhaps a necessary alchemical reagent). He then puts in a
        competitive tender for that contract, the person requesting the
        items then selects an offer based on reputation, cost and ability to
        fulfil the contract within a desirable time frame.
        
        Our Exporter wins, and now has a contract. He happens to know that
        bat ears are extremely common 300 miles away in another town, and
        unfortunately his transport caravans are nowhere near the area, so
        he uses his guild to put up a sub-contract in that town. Now if he
        fails to get a contract, then he has a problem, there should be both
        a monetary and reputational cost. This gives him an incentive to
        make the trade happen, even if its at a net loss because he can't
        get the supply he thought he could. It also stops margins dropping
        too low due as the risk would just put people off.
        
        Part of the strength of this system is that those who build a trade
        network will have an advantage which encourages
        interaction. Furthermore, you should only be able to see contracts
        in your aligned town/area so that you can't be privy to all the
        contract market (after all perfect information = perfect markets no profit).
        
        If you add in the multiple currencies, then there are interesting
        arbitrage opportunities. Especially if you allow these contracts to
        be futures. i.e. I want 300 bat ears in 2 weeks at price
        x. Depending on how the market moves, you have opportunity for
        profit. Of course you have to have a rich enough world to do some
        forecasting otherwise its 100% guesswork and no fun. Furthermore
        some goods need to be perishable, and if you want to store 500 rhino
        hides to ride a market, you are going to have to pay for the
        warehouse...
        
        The main issue is to stimulate demand for 300 bat ears and that's a
        whole different kettle of fish. If you want npcs to do it, they have
        to know the value of items, which is what I originally
        proposed. There are so many things I want to do that rely on this
        knowledge. I suspect that there are mechanics that can stimulate
        player demand for these shipments too, but I need to think further
        on this as its only just taking shape in my mind - or get some ideas
        from here...
