Trading Bug?

Postby Jeffers2112 » Thu Mar 22, 2018 9:16 am

I've noticed since 3.0 arrived that when selling commodities that have been salvaged or given as mission reward that things have changed.
Sometimes (it's not every time, and I've not yet worked out a pattern) when selling these items that they show up as having been bought at the Galactic average price, so selling below that counts as a loss against trading profit.
Obviously, we've paid nothing for these and any return should be profit. (and this is sometimes still happening).
Do you think this is a bug that's crept in? It's quite annoying to have to hang onto things until they can be sold at above average price.
Items should not show as having been bought unless they actually were.

I've noticed it too. Might be a bug. I'm not one for holding onto things, so it doesn't really bother me if I'm selling below the average, I got it for free anyways.

I have no idea what is going on. And I love it

True, but the issue is that it deducts the loss from your trading profit ( I checked!) and so affects your Trade rank progress.

I think I'll raise a ticket anyway.

I am also noticing this, I have loosed quite some trading profit for this. However my Trade rank has not been affected yet. But I don't know whether it will affect my account in near future or not. I have stop the game for now, I hope someone will fix it soon.
