I see that too.
Some are right-side up and some are right-side down, if you will.

Who decides which way is "right?"

I'm glad to hear that those who left there stuff in came out all right. I pulled all my stuff because when crap goes wrong, I'm usually one of the first casualties of it, so Murphy compelled me.

Now to crank up the Ebil and get back to work.

Happy Profiteering and Have Fun Everyone!

I logged on last night in order to pull a few valuable things, only to find GR had gone live a day early

I'm trying to remember why they weren't going to merge them (most recently, not the first inf discrepancy nonsense).

total kick to the gut

This is like having Ra's Al Ghul show up at your birthday party.

Yep.

I have to say Kudos to the Devs on this one.

While I was concerned about the market merger (and all manner of Bad
that could have happened to bids, lists and stuff stored there), I was
seriously nervous about the DB merge across factions for the inventory
system as a whole.

With visions of having a villain PvPIO turn into an L15 Taunt DO when
claimed from gleemail with a hero, I'm ecstatic to see that it appears
(so far) to be one of the smoothest issue releases to date.

I've had my snide commentary posts about the dev's testing skills in the
past, so this time, I'm pleased to issue a positive statement to them.

Excellent Job Devs!

Like many I was caught off guard and didn't pull everything off (as that was my plan for Monday) But I am most impressed on how easy the change over was.

now I just have to wait till all the new toons rolled yesterday hit 50 and start buying my crap again.

I had almost all of my Recipes and Enhancements* kicked out of it's "Selling" status tab and thrown into "Stored". (Posting fees refunded) But with no Last 5 history and I can't remember what I put it in for, I'll have to figure out what to ask for my stuff as I cycle through my alts.

Salvage all sold smoothly, though.

I wonder how many folks had this happen and how much total market inventory was rendered temprarily inert.
