Second Life Marketplace + I can't buy free things for L$0 ? +

[RealityOfMine]

I bought 3 AOs for 0 Lindens but the transfer does not work at all. 

Your shopping cart (3 items from 3 merchants)

 

After Check Out the Cart still list the items? Nothing happens at all? Why is that?

However, I bought one item for 10 Lindens, that worked :)

marketplace can timeout sometimes

just keep trying it. It will work eventually

[RealityOfMine]

I have been trying since yesterday, with different viewers and so on....

 

Maybe I cannot buy things if my account balance shows 0 Lindens?I

[wherorangi]

is it anything for sale for 0L ? like what happens if you try buy other 0L things ? like what happens ff you buy directly and not thru Cart ?

i have a 0L balance at the moment and can buy 0L stuff 

if it persists then can only suggest to try clear cookies on your browser and pray

if that doesnt work then file a support ticket and pray even harder (:

eta:

ps. Does the sale complete and is it only that the stuff is not delivered ?

When checking out, there are some extra steps involved while they entice you to buy something else.

• Click the cart
• Click Checkout
• Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Place Your Order
• Click Buy Now

You should get the message that payment was successful and delivery has begun.

I have never been able to buy anything from Marketplace for 0 Lindens.

I have been in second life for 12 years.

PLEASE OFFER A PAID VERSION OF BoM. 
I cannot download anything from the SL Marketplace that is FREE. 
I am excited to try it.

What problem are you encountering when you try to buy a free item?
BoM (bakes on mesh) is nothing more than the ability to use a system layer on a mesh body/head or other body part that is BoM compatible products that include a system/BoM layer can be bought free or for a fee what ever the seller decides to charge. If you've been in SL 12 years chances are you still have some system layer stuff in your inventory if you didn't ditch it all when you went mesh

Reread this post and follow the steps.

It is point 3 that confuses people. When your items in the cart cost 0 L, this step is added to the checkout process "Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Place Your Order".

It is a marketing thing. If your cart has 0 value items, you are forced to scroll down a page of featured items. As soon as you scroll to the bottom, all the way down, you can click "Place Your Order".

This step does not appear if one of your items cost 1 L or over.
