Public auction if you actually want to sell although idk why anyone would ever think of selling such a piece and give it at least 2 weeks but know that it is 1000% irreplaceable and one of the best q7 swords anyone could possibly dream of

There is nothing worth trading this for. It has no price.

I'll chime in and add some history. I appreciate knowing the journey these things take, and I'm pretty sure you and others do too.
That q8 +5e celestial axe was owned by Jamie Amare in game for a long time (idk if they have a GWL account, otherwise I'd tag them). I got the axe (and a q8 +5e dadao) in a trade from Jamie for a q8 +5e broadsword about 2 years ago. Not long after that I sold the celestial axe to firekil, who traded it to you.
The q7 -2 -2 defender was something I bought from the renowned chinese prenerf salesman in kamadan about 2.5 years ago. I sold it to firekil during his dual reduction collecting phase, and he traded it to you along with other items for his long-time dream dual reduction q8 eternal -2 -2.
The q8 wayward wand used to be owned a looong time ago by Expugnare. He traded it to Salvatorium way back when. Salva held onto for I guess 10 to 15+ years, but sold off a handful of things ~2 years ago which is when I picked it up. I sold it to Felwinter this year, and heard it was already in your hands the very next day, lol.
Finally, that q8 10/10 fire raven staff was owned by Cind. IDK where they got it or for how long they had it, but I knew it was listed in one of their sales threads before they took a fairly long break from GW. I always had my eye on it, and and when they came back about a year and a half ago they made a trade with Pleikki, which is who I eventually got it from. I then sold the staff directly to you maybe a year later. It wasn't Reforged Tanaki who sold it to you.

You're not alone. There's a number of examples of people paying huge sums or trading rare items for things added by the updates this year, without knowing yet that it was a bad trade. Some of these people were taking a gamble while knowing the risk, and others were like you and just weren't aware of updates.
However, there were many threads related to the updates across various forums (not just GWL). I don't really believe your suggestion would have made much of a difference. You would still have to stumble across or go look for posts on forums prior to making a trade.
Sorry for your trade, but if it's any consolation I'll restate that you aren't the only one and I doubt that any new dedicated subforums would have made a difference. The people who caught onto these items dropping were keeping it quiet on purpose in order to make a killing for as long as they could prior to the general public finding out about it, and the beans weren't spilled for a number of days.
