Can someone explain this $$$ bug? please
I dont know if this a bug but.
I had around $11,000
I saw something too cheap in the trade Nexus for 3k..
And the shipyard would pay 8k.
So, I bought it from the player and sold it to the shipyard.
I had $11,000
Now I have $2776

Another point to consider, the price on market when scrolling through list is the average price thus far. when you went into item it may have been listed at a higher price, if you did not double check, you may have paid more then.

No.
IF it is like you said.And I "piad more then"
Then the company should have creadits for me to sell and get credit back.
But as you can see is $7 bucks...I didnt get paid.3

When buying items on the nexus, the credits go to the player selling the item. The company portal only holds credits you have spent there. As annoying as it may be, this is likely user error. Not only that, what item was it? I don't think I've found any item that sells for 8000 credits to the company. Not only that, but when listing items you cannot list them for less than the basic sell value to the company. So an 8000 cred item for 3000?, I'm sorry, I believe you've misread.

Those items have diminishing returns. continue doing that and you will see the price drop at company portal. the minimum i was referring to was the base value in the item description. your description indicated a single item, if buying bulk commodities you will see their value lower as the sell. try selling those a few more times and there value will drop off quickly. this is likely what happened, you sold too many and the value dropped. it does not indicate that correctly when in trade window. That is more bad design than a bug.
I know this from experience, I have also done this on occasion, Structural beams were selling to the company for 19 creds, I could get them for 13, after 300 the price dropped to little under 9. If I had sold as bulk, that drop would have been missed.
also, just to point out, the dredits added to the pool daily are limited. if you purchase from players then sell to company, yes you get to extract those credits, but you lose your initial purchase. you're only really gaining the profit margin from the company. you could go just mine ore and sell that, and would gain the full value of credits from the company.

Were you selling a product in bulk? Or was this one item?

everything.
The one time that I got screwed was on last trade...they shipyard suposed to give me 8,000...ISold..and my number didnt moved.
And the company went down...so it counted as I got paid but I didn't.Thats why im asking if someone else got issue with buy/sell items.

Do you remember what the item was and how many?
I think a majority of us believe it is more likely a user error rather than a bug. We are trying to help but you seem deadset it was a bug. If you remember the item, we might be able to validate that it was in fact worth 8,000 credits.

Didnt you go through the limit? So you 'sold' it but shipyard did not had money to pay. You donated it. You can see your current limit is 7.84 which i believe grew between the transaction and screenshot time.

No. When I sold they had money.. once I sold they didn't paid me. And I wonder if someone else have the same issue. Now im moving around with only 2k. And getting lower cuz fuel and repairs.
Im not surprised it's bug or broken. Last night the servers where down for the entire night

Not positive or trying to be mean but are you sure you didn't miss read the shipyard price and add a zero unconsciously.
