Auction House Issues

I decided to test this issue again. I was unsure if I was missing money from a recent auction or maybe I collected and forgot. This actually happened in classic and a GM showed me that I did get the money. I posted something cheap tonight on the retail AH that sold for 10g. Still no money in my mailbox well after the time I should have received it in the mail.

I assumed TSM would track it, but it looks like I only have a record for the gold Iā€™ve actually received. Itā€™s not even the gold, really, itā€™s a combination of completely reorienting my priorities around making gold following the announcement about the Brutosaur and then running into this bug almost immediately afterwards. On top of days spent gathering and fishing, I leveled new alts for professions and spent hours configuring TSM, all in anticipation of 8.3 and making a boatload of gold in the first and second weeks. I donā€™t think Iā€™ve ever seen anything approaching this level of incompetence from Blizzard.

Same. Started screenshotting once I realized TSM wasnā€™t going to have a record. I have 19 screenshots for a total 240k tonightā€¦itā€™s a pain in the buttā€¦but I also wanted that brutosaur XD.

Iā€™m really uncomfortable with the fact that none of the blue posts in this thread or anywhere else have explicitly acknowledged the missing gold. Instead, we have a list of other AH-related bugs and something about the mail system. Itā€™s like an object lesson in evasive, bureaucratic doublespeak.

I still have anywhere from 15K-50K up the nether (per character btw). I receive some sales, others dissapear. Itā€™sā€¦ aggravating to say the least. The AH markets are in complete disarray and nothing has normalized. Itā€™s rough to make a buck right now, thereā€™s no mark of reference even when moving inventory through trade channels.

Roughly 2mil in held up gold since this all started. Att I thought I was taking advantage of the alc market and everyone coming back was so happy I made that much just sucks its not in the mail to use it. Thatā€™s my game time rolled into all this as well. 6days I hope they fix it.

Still happening, but the blue post did say it was going to take a few days to fixā€¦I donā€™t mind waiting, just working on gold for my AH mountā€¦but I just hope nothing was actually lost :frowning: half my things have sold with no gold in sight or just flat out dissapeared.

Minor issue that I donā€™t see here, weapons and armor donā€™t display what level you can equip them at while hovering over them on AH. Found this out by trying to help someone in general chat. Saved him 3000g on an axe he wouldnā€™t have been able to equip at his level.

I too am having issues related to mail. As are many on my realm. The launcher says ā€œsomeā€ players are having issues, but the issue seems to be ubiquitous.

Still no gold from the AH for several sales on my characters. I wonder how much gold Iā€™m missing.

Also missing hundreds of thousands in gold. Afraid to post anything to the AH at this point. Unsold items return promptly, but anything sold is just lost into the Bank of Blizzard.

edit: Sold 50 anchor weed at 9:35 AM local (screenshotted this one). Checked the AH, at 10:42 am local, nothing in ā€œmy auctionsā€ nothing in my mail box. Do not post anything on Area 52 if you want to get your gold. Blizzard, your AH is just plain eating gold and it needs to be fixed.

Hi there. Iā€™m on Vekā€™nilash. I havenā€™t received any of my auction sales gold, with my bank toon, since Friday, January 17th. I know, Iā€™m not alone. I just wanted to say this still is not working as of 11:00, PST, January 19th. Granted, its the weekend, so hopefully with the reset on Tuesday everything will be fixed?

Posting auctions work well. Canceling auctions no problems and I receive the goodies in the mail. Sending gold from one character to another, no problems either.

I have all of my addons disabled, just in case that was an issue.

Hoping this is resolved during Tuesday maintenance.

Received some of my sales in the past few hours, mostly one-off big ticket items. Still missing tons of gold from yesterday (probably upwards of 100k at this point), primarily from pets, fish, and other miscellany.

Started having issues with no payout form sold auctions just before the unscheduled ā€œscheduled maintenanceā€ on Thursday. Still no gold from those sales. Many ā€œItem not found ā€œ messages when opening mail. Multiple toons affected on this account.

Iā€™ve removed all my auctions. Not posting more until this is resolved. Reimbursement of the Canceling auction fees and proceeds from sales and/or items replaced is what I would consider adequate restitution.
Posting this in addition to the tickets I opened in game.

Iā€™m very much in the same boat. Just returned to WoW after years hiatus, got all my banks/guilds/alts/professions set up only to hit this brick wall around a black hole. Feeling pretty frustrated and beat down now.

I wanted to add something Iā€™ve noticed on my end. If the Auction sold was for more than 1K gold, I am not receiving payment. If itā€™s less than 1K I seem to receive them. Not sure if the threshold has something to do with it.

In any case, I am still missing thousands of gold so far.

Nope just sold a pet for 2k and got it
