Auction house broken? Can't buy item

This is going on for hours. Your system is built on some very slow database it seems. Or has a weak server under it. Or both combined. Anyway, high demand items, say I need to buy just one. People dump it on AH in droves, others buy all the time. The lowest price always changing, your system seems to go crazy and in the end I only see “This item is no longer available.”

Please fix this ASAP or at least let me choose myself which particular lot I want to buy. Would be easier if I could just click on something priced above the market and just buy it already, than click and click and click the “buy” button only to get the aforementioned msg after each market refresh. Frustrating to say the least.

Also, since we’re talking about AH, selling items is another problem. Everything works super-slow, sometimes it won’t even update the “Auctions” tab with my recent sales, they just disappear from my pack, then eventually get sold, but I don’t even seem them in the list.
And no, I don’t use any market addons. Maybe I should lol. Too many bugs in this expansion, too many flawed systems and designs. “Blizzard quality” is getting whole different meaning now, yet still you continue to fire the good devs over your “other problems”. Maybe get some competent people on board, eh?

The AH is notoriously slow these days.
Ever since they implemented x-realm AH.

This might be an issue connected to usage off “TSM” addons though. More bots scanning, posting and buying 24/7.

I suspect its more likely stems from Multiple people trying to buy the exact same item at the same time, whilst 100 other people are listing more of that item at a lower price, and then all the calculations the system needs to do to keep up. That seemed to be where all the Chaos was when the X-realm AH was first implemented (items getting stuck, prices changing etc).

TSM wasn’t causing any problems before the merge, so the way players use the AH shouldn’t be taken into account when the AH is changed. Any changes should accommodate usage already in place, not the other way around.
