WW question

I play on the Virtue server and was trying to buy and sell last night, but WW kept listing my bids at 0inf and it kept kicking my sale items back out to my inventory. I had to try each transaction at least 3 or 4 times each before it took.

So, anyone else having this kind of problem at WW? Any suggestions on what I can do to avoid this in the future?

Sometimes the market gets wonky. Best thing to do is either have a lot of patience or come back later.

Off times are much better behaved. The new market interface's arrival appears to have coincided with a huge suite of new market bugs and severe lag issues. I have a suspicion the testing that was done on it never even approached anything like the load of the live servers near peak times, and something in the new system simply can't scale up like the old interface did.

one thing that I have found helps when I start getting this problem is to leave the zone and come back in. seems to reset something in my connection to the market. so I usually use Talos for the short commute to the train and back.

Philly Guy, in those cases, what I do is simply rebid, or repost, it doesn't charge you more, or you don't bid twice on something. Same thing was happening to me last night, and all I did was kept at it, and it worked.

It also helps to watch the market dialog in your chat box. It's the only reliable way of knowing if your transactions are happening.


Open the pod bay doors, Hal.

With manic clicking, I was able to get 4-5 instances of the same item up for sale before the UI reset. I'm hoping that one day perhaps, I can dup the sale of a single item. Of course, with my luck, it'll probably happen when I'm putting up a Ceramic Armor.

But if you do that, the game will be Gone to the Americans!

Yeah, that was some nasty weirdness last night. I were also on virtue, past midnight, trying to sell off crap from a deletion-impending character. I found that when an item made it to the WW storage but putting it up for sale just wouldn't stick, I had a few minutes to put everything else on the market with ease, and just that one item would be screwed up. Then came back a few minutes later and spammed post on it till it posted.
