I'm aware it was suggested here http://fodev.net/forum/index.php?topic=10255.0

And after reading some comments like "And with the filters on the barter menu, it really only takes 30 seconds if you know what you're doing."

Right...

As you can see, 29 seconds wasn't even enough to reach the end of the list, let alone pick one.

My suggestion:
- Remove barter time and so people don't abuse it, make it so the timer appears only if someone else tries to speak with the npc
- or add more specific filters (SG, EW, BG on different filters for example)

yes, yes, double yes, even a triple yes!!!!!!!

That is a great idea but i'm guessing it'll be hard to script such a thing to put into the game.

Already increased up to 45 sec?

Already increased up to 45 sec?

only when talking normal, not bartering.

[Jhazard]

Ye, you can see that on the video

[Gnoff]

Imo the one thing that would fix it is if radios/melee weapons had their own tabs.

[runboy93]

Or maybe barter default timer can increased like normal dialog timer?
45 seconds to default give little extra time for shoppers.

And there should be filter for "Radio", because there is only radios ATM..

[backora]

Why don't you increase your barter skill? If you want to be good at trades you need barter skill. I think 300s maximum is not so bad, is it.

This suggestion only brings work for devs but no improvement benefit to the game.

Can you say "stackable items"?

But I have this strange feeling it has been suggested before... a hundred and seven times  or so. Must mean it's a stupid idea, right?

[Reginmund]

what next? deterioration filter for weapons?

Better item stacking would be much better than simply increasing barter time. If items stacked properly, we'd actually need to spend less time shopping because of optimized merchant inventory.

Hmm.. radios is always just same radio.
They don't have detoration or anything.
So why not stackable?

[JovankaB]

Because they have different radio stations set. Sure it would be better to just reset it automatically to 0 when you sell it.

[OskaRus]

Good feature would be some advanced filter. Under the standard filter would be input field. When you would want to buy Sniper Rifle and not want to scroll through zilons of mauser you yust write *sniper* and it is filtered most likely by name of item. Or that filtering via say dialog.
