If you suspect there is a limit wouldn't you yourself have an idea what that limit might be? 
Exactly how many things have you or were you trying to buy?

So you're asking if there's some kind of "max number of things you're allowed to buy per day" limit?|

If there is such a limit I've never heard about it. *shrugs*

I think there's a way to see the transaction history. For the life of me I can not remember, though.

Basically...I've been purchasing them as needed...and everything was fine...until I tried to get some yesterday...and something came up saying there was a limit of paragon market transactions allowed...and apparently I reached that limit.|

Was just seeing if anyone else had any info on it.

Weird. I'm wondering if it's like a "limit per day" or an overall max. Either way it seems like a dumb idea to restrict people from spending their points whenever they want.

$100 per 30 day period by default - https://help.ncsoft.com/app/answers/...arket%20limits
if you've been buying them as you needed them... otherwise not sure what the problem would be.

that can be changed up to $400 i believe, but it shouldnt restrict on how much or when you spend the points

I know about that limit...that's not it.
It's something about the transactions off the Paragon Market itself.
I have the list of how many transactions I've made to actually purchase paragon points with my real money. Not even close to $100.

Agreed, but it was the only limit on the market that I was aware of. I may be completely wrong, but if he was buying them as he was spending them, this *may* have been the restriction he's talking of. Oh loook a dime! *placate & run*

Transaction history, no. What you've bought without date/times? Yes.|

The /mypurchases command.
Triumph: White Succubus: 50 Ill/Emp/PF Snow Globe: 50 Ice/FF/Ice Strobe: 50 PB Shi Otomi: 50 Ninja/Ninjistu/GW Stalker My other characters
There has to be some information somewhere...telling me what the limit is...and when I can get again.

So are you still effectively "locked out" from spending anymore points right now? |

It still seems rather strange that they would put any limit to how many existing points you could spend. I understand the limit for buying points because they don't want any problems with people abusing credit cards and the like. But once you have the points credited to your account why restrict our ability to use them?
It still sounds like you may be dealing with some kind of bug or problem with your account. I don't think there's any information out there to "tell you what the limit is" because I doubt there's supposed to be a limit for that, or a least not a limit that we the players are ever supposed to have to deal with.
Good luck regardless...

This is the actual error message:
•As a security measure we limit individual online serial code purchases. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please try again later. If you have further questions please visit this Support Center article Online Code Purchase Limits.
Edit: This clearly has nothing to do with the $100 limit because I can check all my transactions through the billing history...and I'm not even close to $100.
I cannot believe they don't want my money.
Looks to be an issue tied to the serial codes on the purchase item. I searched but couldn't find an actual numeric count on how many serial codes you can apply to your account in a given period of time but there're a lot of similar complaints on the Aeon boards.
Issue with ncsoft's store.... all I can suggest is file a bug report with them and see if they can fix that limit. Especially with the micro-transactions we have in City now... I'll be nerd raging if I can't buy TW when they escape to live 
I tried to buy points through the store and it told me there was a limit but would not give how much and the time frame for when I can buy more points.

As Mike says, the time frame is 30 days and his link shows you how to view/change your limit. You should be able to see what points you have purchased in the last 30 days (and earlier) if you log onto your account throught the CoH web site.

Necro posting is generally considered bad form. I was a little cheesed off to discover I was reading nearly three month old posts halfway through the thread. If you feel you have important information to update, best to start a new thread, linking back to the original.
Q. Just wondering Posi, where are the new dance emotes we were told would come with GR?
A. Positron: Whoops, my bad.
1387 badges, and counting
It seems that there is a limit on how many transactions you can make on the Paragon Market.
Does anyone have the numbers to the limit?
