Hmmm. I hope they think it through. I see an immediate potential to abuse it:
The broker has 10,000 bricks. He's selling them cheap because he has so many. You buy all 10,000. Now he has no bricks. Since he has no bricks, he wants to buy them and will pay a premium. You sell him 10,000 and make a lot of money. Now he has 10,000 bricks...
It would have to do some complicated math, I'd think, to handle it so that selling 10,000 bricks in one chunk nets you the same as selling 10,000 bricks one at a time (the 10,000th brick will not be worth as much as the 1st).
I'll post something on the Dawntide forums. I didn't see any patch notes discussion threads though.
