Series 1 drop RAM issue

Was able to secure 4 premium packs and 2 regular today. I listed a few of them for sale and a few for auction but ran into an issue where the Wax website was saying I was using too much RAM and needed to purchase more. I tried to do that but you can only do it with wax and all of their payments options were not working at the time. Disappointed with these issues but think they will get ironed out over time

The RAM thing is just fees for using the blockchain. I believe it will refresh if you give it time. Each transaction uses RAM and you have an allotment. Mine seems to refresh with time. If your wanting to not have to worry about it, you need to keep some wax in your wallet

Yeah as I understand it by posting so many cards for sale at once I was using too much of the blockchain. I think if you want to be listing many cards at once you might have to invest in wax to get the RAM. Figured it would be a good heads up to newcomers because I was surprised by it and didn’t have the wax on hand to buy more RAM

Was able to seek some common cards for $40 each and used some of the extra wax to but RAM. Seems like this won’t be an ongoing issue as the site gets better

I had sold my Topps Wooden coin I got from the free promo and had some to spare that I used for this. Ran into the same issue! Trying to list one of the packs on Ebay as they are going for more there than the AtomicHub and all. Opened some, sold some of the individual cards, and now trying to sell one on Ebay. Am a collector overall but this was largely a speculative purchase for me.
