market wont let me post or remove items


 

Posted

i was doing marketing for toons with full inventories, and then after a lot of transactions it gave me the "the market is too busy to process request"

i was like "ok then, time to change toons", so i did, and the market was still not letting me post or get items from the market, although it would let me get inf from sold items

as of now its been about 15-20 min since i got the "too busy" message and even after changing toons i cannot post or get any items to or from the market, i can still store stuff, but i cant post or remove any of those, i cant even get any items that i have listed for sale, i cannot even make offers to buy anything and this is after switching toons multiple times. i even switched from a villain to a hero to try WW and i cannot use the market at all right now.

i know something is messed up because before the market would give the too busy message and then about 2 min later i could do stuff on market again and it would not persist through switching toons

edit: after some info digging, noticed someone else had similar problem and they said that closing the game client and restarting works, but right now if you get "the market is busy processing request" it means you have to quit game and restart to make it work again

Most likely the Marketing server is getting hammered with people trying to catch up for when it was offline and isn't able to recover from a 'too busy' error without disconnecting you first, which it isn't doing because... it's 'too busy.'

You may want to try switching zones and re-trying the Market, that's sometimes as good as restarting the client.

i tried changing zones, changing toons, even changing to toon of other faction (got message on vill and changed to hero)

i know that the market is prolly getting pounded, but im not the only one to be experiencing this because thats where i got my edit was from another thread with approx same issue

the only thing thats worked for me so far is restarting the client

Well, sorry to hear that, but it's good to know.

Hopefully new fixes can be accomplished without any more chunks of down time.

yeah, i prolly expect another patch in the near future to fix the market (again) and fix the other bugs (power customization, green mitos, reichsman, ect)

Yup, I just had this problem as well. Once the "market is too busy" warning comes up the only way to restore interaction with the market is to restart the client. Zoning, logging off to login screen, changing characters all have no effect.

Edit: I've /bugged this and added a link to this thread. Hopefully they can sort this out pronto. In the meanwhile I'm steering clear of the Get All Inf button.

Ok, today I completely ignored the Get All Inf button and grabbed the cash from a dozen sold IOs one at a time. Once I'd finished I got a "Market too busy" message for each item and got locked out of the market until I'd restarted the game client.

Not amused, as if the new market interface wasn't bad enough

Just had the exact same thing happen

i like the new market interface so much more than the old one, its much more organized and easier to use (autocomplete and search clear ftw)

ive been avoiding the get all inf button and havent had an issue so far, as long as you give like 1-2 sec between hitting the get button on the next item you should be fine, this issue is more of a inconvenience than a real issue (like the disappearing stacks of items)

Exact same issue here. Once you get that error you will continue to not be able to make any transactions on any toons on any server until you quit the game to desktop and get back in.

It can be a real issue when you dont know about it and click on the button to get all inf and get the error. I let several items sit overnight and normally have a bunch of sales the next day when I come back. Now I have to click on each sale one at a time and wait a few seconds between each or risk having to quit the game and start over. Considering that the new market was supposed to make things easier and faster, keeping this bug around just makes things slower and more cumbersome. This bug will also follow you on any toon on any server so just changing zones or changing toons does not fix the issue.
