I am trying to sell stuff,
with immediate sale.
i see buy orders in current station. i select item, do “sell”
CCP adds +0.10 to price and my item is not sold “immediately”.
as result “sell order” is created.
for now i need to WAIT 5 min to change order
remove that shity .10
and pay fees
As Scoots said, make sure that “immediate” is selected from the dropdown box when selling to a standing buy order. Some market orders were created under the old market system before the rounding to 4 sig figs thing took effect. So, their prices might be a price that you can no longer actually sell or buy at.
Moreover, this will prevent you from having to pay the broker’s fee for setting up a standing sell order.
And, in case you were wondering, you are effectively creating standing sell orders if you have a time selected from the dropdown box. It just looks like you are selling directly to a standing buy order because as soon as you’d create the order, the game would see a standing buy order of a sufficiently high price, and then automatically sell to that.
I had the same problem, and in theory I understand the rationale. But it’s not how the order system used to work, and I have no idea why they made this change without drawing any attention to it, unless they actually wanted a one-time way to get relisting fees from the unwary.
Get in the habit of tabbing to another field or clicking on an empty field to let the field youve entered rationalise. Even if it doesnt, do it anyway to get the habit of double checking the input.
…should be impossible unless the buy order you were trying to sell to was already filled between the time you went to sell and when you clicked the button.
Immediate sell orders also cannot end up as a 90 day sell order. You weren’t selling immediately, you were listing 3 month long sell orders.
Ok, let me put it another way.
Whining about it on the forums isn’t going to help you, at all. In fact, the more you whine, the more likely ISD will just close the thread.
File a bug report.
Ok, so all you want to do is whine and cry. Hope that works out for you, buddy.
Hello! If you’ve fund a bug, I highly recommend that you file a bug report. This way, the people who look at the issue can fix it. It is the fastest way, believe you me.
Many, many people behave as if EVE was indeed a second job …
… and a seriously underpaid one, too.
You could go mow a lawn and pay for [equivalent of 500 PLEX in ISK], making more ISK in less time than it would take you whatever else you could be doing in the game. I understand that you could also calling it “playing the game”, so part of your income would be “enjoyment of playing the game” but in the end you’re still doing it for the money.
When I ran out of ISK I simply dropped 20 bucks into the game. Of course I’m also open for ISK making opportunities, but those are opportunities. I’m not going to log in every day to make ISK, because then it’s a job. Even though you might not perceive your market activities as a job, as soon as you’re doing it regularly, with the goal of making money, it is equivalent to a job!
