This morning i had around _million coins. I went to auction house to try to buy an extra pair of Gary Shiny Pants. I clicked on the buy it now option and every time i would get a popup that said "Invalid"....like it didn't go through. So, i would click it again and it would say "This item expired from the floor". So, i would click on another one around the same price range and i would keep getting the "Invalid" message. I figured it was because people were buying them before i could click it and it was expiring, so i just kept clicking on all the cheaper buy it nows, hoping to get a score. Then i look up and realize I am down 8mil coins!! I checked my inventory and now i have 26 pairs of these gary shiny pants that no one is buying, all due to this "Invalid" message. It took me hours and days of buying and selling to achieve that many coins. I know it states that BVG will not reverse or refund any AH purchases under any circumstances. I can understand if this was a purchase that someone didnt like or was unhappy with an item (which im sure they get alot). But this was clearly a mistake on their part. Either way, i probably wont get refunded and yes i submitted a ticket anyways. Just a heads up, if you purchase an item in AH and you receive an "invalid" pop up...it went through!

yes the auction house is acting funny

I imagine they can double check this for you. Just send them a ticket and explain it. They will check and see if you bought 26 pairs of pants in 10 minutes. LOL

oo that sucks bad hope they help u

LOL I just looked now at my clothing invo because you posted this.

I tried to buy one extra pair of the pants in AH cheap when I first heard of this, it was 20k I think. I clicked buy now, got invalid and thought, well whateva.

Well now I have 2 pairs of gary shiny pants in my invo.

I went through the same thing just about 10 min ago but I gave up after the first few times it said invalid on it. I don't think I ever got any extras at least I don't think so.

OH my god lmao....I have 6 pair now. I had no clue it even went through.

That's awesome. Hopefully they will go up a little and it wont be a total loss on my part. I guess if i dont get my coins refunded, i will sit on them and hope for the best

Oh my, I hope this gets resolved quickly!

Mine did go through. I'm not worried about mine though but if I were you..I'd file ticket out.

I'll probably give a few to friends but if I had bought as many as you. I'd want a refund.

This happened to me too. I was also buying Gary's pants and got the invalid data popup followed by the item expired popup. I thought it didn't go through so tried again. I had about 5 gary's pants by the time I realized what was happening. I have managed to sell 2 of them back for about the same I paid for them but I think I'm taking a loss due to the invalid data issue.

Oh well!

26 pairs wow, you weren't giving up easily were you

So sorry that happened, I hope they're able to reverse it or compensate you somehow since the issue was on their end.

Aww they really need to get this fixed. That sucks for ones that have to take a loss.

Wow what a loss Hope they do something for you.Ty for sharing

I wonder if this is a new problem with other items or just Gary's pants . Hope it gets resolved for all of you.

It would appear that just the Gary Pants are affected. I ended up accidentally buying 8 of them myself, and lost 2M..
