How about splitting it into 'Listing Fee' and 'Sales Tax'? There should still be a charge for creating a Buy/Sell order, but if there's a happy balance to be had, this split would find it.
The terms of the Faction/Trade Hubs needn't be perfect or make us completely happy; those are the operating conditions or rules we engage them with, the same for everyone.

Paying taxes at the time of the offer has more undesirable side-effects, e.g., changing prices down and up again results in a part of the taxes paid twice. The research to change prices often is in essence useless.
I'm also reluctant to explore new hubs when I lose taxes for sell orders in the old hub for moved goods.

King Sigurd is a greedy pretender. We have no need of kings, we can think for ourselves. Hail the Undying Flame!

Well in that case, the king just takes your money for free and offers nothing. Even better. Although I thought trade score was based on amount of tax paid. Either way not the focus of the thread. The point here is as with many things in illy, a couple of clicks can completely screw you in the game.

You don't even get trade score unless someone accepts your offer.

Well once the purchase is actually made sure go ahead and send the vans. But before if you priced something with extra zeros, well no one would ever buy it and you could change it. Now you pay taxes well above the extra money you would have made and no one will sell it. So you get trade score thats pretty much it.
