WG, like most tech companies, has a very poor understanding of human nature.

 

Part of the appeal of a game like WOT is managing the garage, your tanks, etc.

 

Not being able to clear out unwanted stuff makes the game less appealing.

Yes, everything must go sale!

I wish people would stop looking at their personal situation anytime something doesn't fit their needs and rather look at the whole community. Even if some can't use the blueprints because they have all the tanks, there are others who can use them and are happy when they get them. The more new players who stay and play the game, the longer the game will be around which is a good thing for everybody.

These blueprint fragments are nothing but a carrot on a stick.  They are there to entice unknowing "marks" into buying ..spending money.

It isn't just a personal issue, believe me. And I'm not saying these shouldn't exist at all. 

It would benefit a lot of players if they could sell stuff they don't want/need.

 

If you want to keep something - keep it; but it doesn't mean Mark or Anthony or Jesus wants to keep it and therefor they should be able to get rid of it. 

You can sell equipment, consumables, modules and shells you don't need. Why wouldn't you be able to sell this? 

 

It's like idk having a ton of books you already read (or didn't read and never will). You may want to keep them, just to have them, though you may not have any use of them.

But you might as well sell them to free some space and not to look at them anymore. Right?

I will trade unwanted national blue print fragments and GOLD for wanted national blueprints.

2 for 1, 3 for 1, and gold as well.  I have a dozen useless national blue print fragments and I cannot use them as I have completed all

the research for those nations.

i just want to sell all those emblems and inscriptions!

I agree. Would like to be able to dump not only those things but some of the psychedelic "styles" and camos. Generally I prefer something that at least looks like it belongs on a tank and would like to be able to sell some of the weird ones.

Perhaps the answer is that because a player generally purchases those items by credits and replenishes those items used in battle at a cost (depleting your depot inventory), a player can sell those items for any reason or no reason as s/he wishes.  

 

The other items (national and international blueprints, decals, emblems...) cannot be purchased. Consequently, they are not made available to sell. Seems fair enough to me.  

 

But I love the Groza's idea to allow us to trade a particular type of item for the same type of item at some type of ratio.

 

And at the very least, we should be given an option to remove/delete any unwanted item in our inventory. (For me, Good Bye! to every decal/emblem thingy from Christmas 2018)

Just give us that option; it should be simple enough to program that in, right?

why would you want to get rid of your blueprint stuff, its awesome not having to grind tier 9 tanks at all to get tier 10 tanks ive gotten 3 tier 10s without even playing the tier 9

i have blue prints of tanks i will never want, wish we could trade them in for the blue prints we need. Even if it was 5 for 1 

[Tao_Te_Hobbit]

Or trade.  Or toss into a Collider like they have for Holiday Ops ornaments and either get something we want or have 'em ground up.
