Have you tried buying a missive? This happened to me (not) getting the missive of mastery.

Yeah, because people are buying and selling so fast, you can’t get the amount you actually want unless you’re quick.
Welcome to the downside of having a game-wide AH.
This is really highlighting a fundamental flaw in the design of the AH. It simply does not work with this level of usage. Regardless of anyone’s opinion on a region wide AH, we cannot have an AH from which you cannot reliable, without luck, purchase items presently for sale. They should either fix this or revert it to a server locked AH again to reduce load until they work it out. But having functionally no AH in this game is a DISASTER.

Are we sure it’s bots and not leftover bugs from patching?

Maybe what you’re buying is stuck in a container ship off Long Beach.

OP,
The bots are out in force right now. I put up a lot of junk and it was like I was having a fire sale. As I put them up, they were being sold. But don’t worry. Blizzard will ban anyone who posts selling boosts in the trade chat, so it’s all good!
There is a supply shortage and delay.
It’s called immersion people

I think that’s more a function of having 100x as many buyers as last week

What I’m seeing is that the cheapest item in a list of commodities is being bought and then relisted again and again and again – count goes from X to X-1 and then back to X again and again, and trying to buy anything results in “Item No Longer Available” even though there are >100k of the item listed.
Seconded. Whatever is happening isn’t other people buying stuff first. The overall numbers don’t change, except for the one lowest-cost item that goes up and down by one again and again. The result is that nobody is buying anything.
Same. I could buy 50, but not one.

AH merger should have happened on a smaller scale. Blizzard doesn’t care that bots are screwing us.
I’ve been trying to buy Widowbloom for 2 days with several characters and having the same message. The numbers don’t change, I’ve tried going for different amounts and it’s makes no difference. Nothing to do with Bots or other people trying to buy.

It’s the bots that buy and sell items relatively instantly
Though I had some issues with this message, I persisted and finally managed to buy what I wanted. It was somewhat frustrating, and I hope things will calm down soon.
I think that widowbloom specifically is broken. It had the same two for 40g and the rest for 100+ and no matter what I did I couldn’t buy any at any price
In Soviet Russia, auction house buys you.
So is fireweed. There are 606 of them that have not been able to buy them since tues.
When someone lists some at the same or lower price i can buy them but the 606 @ 75 silver stay there cant buy them. there is no way to buy the ones that are a little more expensive.
