I would imagine a generic blank fillable box of text with a send button that is linked to an auction winners email isn't too difficult to implement. Obviously the member would have the option to enable or disable the feature. And their email would be private unless they decide to reply.
I am not sure but I believe HA has this feature but I assume it only goes through the website? Could be dead wrong, I'm not certain.
But who's checking the website on their 5 year old auction winnings for offers? Not many people I would bet. And if it's heritage staff relaying messages themselves then that's even worse. But nearly everyone is checking their emails.
As somebody who is a single player collector I have scowered easily 100 auction houses for rare, unique and one of a kind items. Many I have found I would love to reach out and make an offer. But none give the option.
If you read this and own an auction house, please add this feature.
