I'm VIP and it was working for me the other day, but not right now.

Yeah, I couldn't get the store to load at all and when I asked *insert random player name* they said that they believed it to be down as well. Which sucks because I have costumes that I'd forgotten to backup and the whole Sentinel+ backup won't work on locked toons.
EDIT: It's working now, but REALLY slow so be patient!
Re-Edit: I kept getting that error mentioned above by others.
I sent an e-mail to Skippy Sidekick about the Beta Store issue. The earliest that they can address the issue is on Monday.

Monday is a HELL of a lot better to hear than never, AW. Thank you very much for looking into it.
Be well, people of CoH.

Also, everything under "Content" does not have the "Buy Now" button. you can add them to your wish list, but the Cart button is greyed out. No one can buy any SSA (I cannot play Pandora's Box parts 4 & 5).

The only way you can play Episode 4 and 5 is if a dev unlocks it for your account or you can wait for them to be unlocked in September and October.

Sooo. There is a dev available still to publish things to beta. Well at least they are giving you guys a pinch of wiggle room still. *crosses fingers for psi melee*

Its also possible this was preprogrammed to become available at a particular time and does not require dev intervention. I think the WSTs are working in a similar fashion.

Yes, market items become available according to a preprogrammed schedule.
Well. Thats good to know. I wont give up hope on seeing psi melee or any other awesome powerset before the doors close, gotta FRAPs something to help me remember the best MMO

Would that be specifically on Beta, or on live as well?

Even if the game wasn't shutting down, episode 4 of SSA volume 2 would have been released in September anyway. I think what Alpha Wolf is saying is that part 4 is going to be released to the live severs this month. Of course since premiums can't buy it, it will only be available to VIP players. It's possible the process of switching the SSA from beta to live is automated as per a release schedule.

Why wouldn't Premiums be able to buy it if it's released to the Live servers?
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Item purchases are supposed to be disabled as part of the impending shutdown.

I was referring to premium players who don't have enough paragon points currently since nobody at all can buy points anymore.

Negative on that. Spending CASH is disabled (i.e. buying points or subscription time). You can still buy things in the store with the points you already have.

Since last night after loading the beta client, I have been unable to get the in game store to show me any items.
The store window comes up but remains blank. After leaving it in that state for a bit, eventually this comes up:
"There was an error processing your request. Please try again later."
After clicking on, say, the New tab, the background changes color and after X amount of time the following comes up:
"Internal Server Error
The server encountered and internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, root@localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might had done to have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
Apache/2.2.3 (CentOS) Server at mall-beta.playspan.com Port 80"
Continuing to let it sit cycles through the two quoted errors.
Has any non-vip been able to access the beta server market since non-vip were granted access?
Be well, people of CoH.
