My market items don't get sold
A while ago i sold many items on my market, but now everything i anounce always gets stuck so i can't sell anything anymore.
Forum Discussion
The fact that they haven't directly responded to this issue, shows that it is NOT a bug, but an intended design to control the pace/flow of Global market.
They are very aware of this issue, and have no plans to fix it.
There seems to be some hidded "cap" on the amount of money you are able to earn or the amount of transactions you can post on the Global market in a set period.
So you're supposing that there might be a correlation between the amount made/sold and the amount of slots purchased and the lack of sales in a set time frame? I'm open to this theory, although I'd love some sort of confirmation from EA. Even an idea of what the cap is, so we can determine and regulate our output. I don't know if anyone else takes this game as serious as I do, but I find it to be a great outlet for my micromanaging fixation.
I am as crazy about this game as you are dancyclist. I just started playing sim city a few weeks ago and am addicted. When I first started playing a didn't use the global trading HQ at all. When I did list an item it took days to sell and I didn't really know how it(global trading HQ) worked until just a few days a ago. I listed some shovels and they sold in seconds. I was really surprised and started listing more items. And I couldn't keep my slots full I was even purchasing items listed on the HQ and selling them for a higher price. Starting yesterday morning though all selling stopped for me. It didn't know what happened until I hit this FAQ. We do need a response from EA. I love EA and this is a awesome game but they need to be honest to their customers and fans and let us know what the limit is; it is obvious there is a limit. Happy New Year to all!
- I literally donate my factory time to selling, and supplying the cargo ship, which I have my alarm clock set for to maximize efficiency. My city is finely tuned and optimized for maximum population with minimal building, to best utilize what I currently have. If you ever see "Bay Village" on the market, it's probably me, and I list many things at once. I need this cap to either be explained, or lifted. I'm just glad we're able to band together as a community on this forum.
- @Ea_Kristi, I had to add an additional slot to my trade depot in order for things to sell, despite being able to sell just fine up until about 5 hours ago. My user ID is 32826910. Can you give me any insight on why this may be happening?
