Paul Hexem Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 So, I saw the "Instant Purchase" button today, and decided to try it out on a pair of demo jeans.Instead of being charged 0 L$ and being sent demo jeans, I was charged 250 L$ and sent some women's hair. Hair that I've never even looked at on the marketplace in the past. It seems they picked it randomly and charged me for it.Another broken goddamned system.

I always use instant purchase or purchase now or whatever the method is to not use the shopping cart and have never had any issues. I *have* had many, many customers buy multiples of my copy items and when asked 100% of them used the shopping cart and had quite a few items from other merchants in the cart as well. The two may not be indicative of anything but...I'll just default back to I've never had an issue with *not* using the shopping cart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perrie Juran Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Are you refering to the "Buy Now" feature? I just did a test run. The final screen you get to after choosing "Buy Now" should look like this, showing the item and purchase price. Did you not see this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czari Zenovka Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Thank you, Perrie...I was referring to the "Buy Now" button but was too lazy to go look at the MP...lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Hexem Posted September 27, 2013 Author Share Posted September 27, 2013 No, the button on the product page. Usually it says "Add to Cart" or "Buy Now". Well, "Buy Now" was replaced with "Instant Purchase". I used it, and was sent hair. Interestingly, I did contact the hair creator. Apparently he was swamped with IMs of people saying the same thing. Also interestingly, the button has now returned to "Buy Now". Instant Purchase doesn't show up anymore. Seems it was a bug in the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never seen an Instant Purchase option, just the "Buy Now" which eventually leads to the screen Perrie posted. Weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amethyst Jetaime Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Very Odd. I just looked at MP and the button still shows as "Buy Now" for me. Maybe they rolled out another *choke* improvement and then rolled it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Hexem Posted September 27, 2013 Author Share Posted September 27, 2013 That's my guess. They rolled it out, it was terrible, then they changed their mind. They also closed my JIRA and said that support should refund me. Support read my ticket and told me how to find the item in my received folder. **bleep**ing morons.

From start to finish they love playing with our patience. Unreal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
