Duplicate placement sound after placing items in merchant tab

Whenever I place an item in my merchant tab, about 20 seconds later I hear the same drop sound. If I placed a ring I hear a ring drop sound. If I placed a map I hear the map drop sound.

If I place multiple items, I hear multiple sounds ~20 seconds after I placed the relevant item.

That is the sound of the items locking and can no longer be changed until a timer has elapsed for each item recently priced.

Agreed it should be less obvious or able to be muted in settings, but currently not a bug.
Thanks for clarifying. But it shouldn't be the same sound - there's no indication why the sound is playing. It would make more sense to me to be a lock sound. Or a lock sound and something in chat.

As someone who typically has hundreds of items listed and lowers them gradually, please no, lol. When I relist multiple tabs worth of items, I already hear that noise cascade for a few minutes and don't want chat clogged by the messages too.

I'll have to check when I get home, but in typical GGG fashion tooltips/clarity is always a balance issue between too much info and not enough that is hidden with a potentially obscure menu. I knew about the locks and visual indicator it is locked from one of the videos and testing it in PoE 2. But I never checked if there was any tooltip explaining what was going on.
