This is NOT a company. This is not affiliated with any settlement. This could be a secondary company someday when we get unsponsored extra companies.
Money is useless, markets are hit and miss (mostly miss), and we have a lot more materials stockpiled than we're using. It's only a matter of hussling those materials around to whoever can improve them into something more useful. This is an idea to take the place of trade contracts to specific people until we can get those. A network of people who have some things and want to trade them for other things, hopefully building an entente with different members of the collective effort to get raw materials and refined goods to the characters that can use them.
I think it could make production a lot easier during Early Enrollment to have that network. These last weeks of alpha are a great time to practice the system and build those connections so they're well-established once everything becomes persistent and we get impatient to do as much as possible as soon as we're able. If there are three people that know you're always looking for beast pelts and keep goods on hand to trade with that they want, it may become difficult to run out of beast pelts.
We can work out trades in forums or in-game.
No centralized official leadership, and no official charter. It runs the way societies did before money was invented- relationship history, referrals, and personal accountability. Depending on how you feel about another character you may let them walk off with a sack full of your goods with an understanding they'll get something back to you soonish, or whatever arrangements you work out one on one.
The penalty if someone makes a habit of breaking those understandings is word gets around and damages their personal reputation so they lose opportunities to trade. Maybe the jilted even go to a bread store and talk about their problems. It's old school.

I'll start things off. I'm known as Sin based in the Southeast in Brighthaven.
I harvest lots of raw mats, T2 rocks, gems, and chemicals; with high-end smelting and armorsmithing and lower levels in lots of other stuff.
I'm looking for a one-time trade for a good Pine Post +3 or +2.
Also a steady, casual-level supply of coal if we can work something out.

Charone, based out of Hammerfall, Southeast as well, but to your Southwest ;)
I do have the recipe for Pine Post +3, but unfortunately I am not a high enough Sawyer.
I am a Weaver 5, so interested in those recipes and of course Hemp, Wool and other weaver materials.
Mostly around UTC 20:00-23:00 at the moment.

Schedim here, obviously, based in Aragon but moves around in a rouge triangle with points in Thornkeep, Alderwag and Golotha. But with forays to Keepers Pass and SW lowland.
My specialty is Battleaxes, have plenty of the +1 version, any takers? And makes +2 on commision.
Also have a varity of Plant mats T1 and T2 and lots of refined Apothecary extracts.
As I work hard on testing various combat effects Im always in need of good armours, and will now begin to use Heavy Armours.
But I trade anything for everything, or was it the other way around...?
