I think you have a good idea there Fastmover,
Although i would also like to recommend we have a form of trading as well.
So basicaly, you have a 'trading market'. You can add items into it where any other user can make an offer for them, and you can also arrange trades with other players.
For the auction, a small auction house in town, Players can choose how long to have the auction on for (maybe 30mins-24 hours). How much the starting bid will be, and what the min increment will be.
There definitely needs to be trading in the new game. I suggested that while you are exploring, you may come across another player, and you could trade in the field. This way, if you have items that don't work for your character, you could trade them for things you need. Also thought the traveling caravan would be an interesting twist.

The one problem I can see with trading wherever you want is it could get old having players constantly asking for trade. How ever I guess we could possible add a check box that turns on or off that you are looking to trade. Let players wanting to trade find players that are willing to trade.
