I was just wondering if there was a published record of the PW gold market that relates every buy and sell offer?

Is what appears in each individual's client, the only (somewhat temporary) record?

    Nope, each server varies, and there is no public record.

    While the only public (as in, what regular players see) record is via the in-game market, I am sure that PWE's servers do keep a record of the market goings-on. However, we won't see those because of the legal ramifications (because of possible personal information included).

    It would be child's play to mask any personal info in that data.

    There are WAYS to display information without putting in personal information take for examples like:

    This Hardware Survey, which only displays the total amount of what hardware people are running

    You could also list gold prices by year and month. But people usually don't screenshot those sorts of things.

    And has yet another example of how things have been displayed anonymously

    Just like the ranking pages they display peoples name and level without displaying their % or their K/D ratio. You DAMN WELL know that there are ways of displaying information that are non-subjective and overly objective and written a POST about this in the suggestions forum.

    Time won't wake/make you wiser, but it will definitely wound you.

    without explicitly mentioning the name of any competing MMO in here, go googling "grand exchange". THAT kind of web front-end to the auction house would be REALLY handy.
