Is the Diablo 3 AH unusable?

It'd be perfect without the fucking bugs

Aye, as I said in my previous post, they're extremely annoying. Maybe it's just being overloaded seeing as it's Memorial Day and I guess more people will be playing than usual (at the time I was playing, at least). But the game is still young (release wise...) and hopefully they'll sort out the bugs quickly. Can't imagine what RMAH will be like with these bugs.

hi guys, have you experienced problem like you make buyout (accepted messaged appears), your gold amount is lowered by that sum but you never receive item? not in "Completed" or after reload AH

My guess is they full well know how bugged it is at the moment and are therefor pushing it back to fix stuff. I just got a gem in my completed list I didn't need cause the one I had bought never showed up or failed. Only 500g, but still, would have been very annoying if this had happened with a piece of gear I wanted/needed.

Well that is exactly what happened with my gem. It took about 3 hours for the thing to actually show up in my completed list.

So don't worry, the system works, just it's verrrrrrry slooooooow.

Can't buy anything on the AH without either getting an error or just never receiving the item and I can't sell anything without either getting an error or never getting my money.

So yeah.. pretty unusable right now.

Where is the: "I have never even opened the AH because it is a violation of the spirit of the previous diablo games." option?

[Santti]

Nah, not unusable, but there is room for improvement for sure.

I just used it so yes, aparently it is usuable. It's not perfectly streamlined but it is servicable. Havent actually given it much thought.

I wonder why they made the AH so shitty when they have a perfect AH in their other game. Why not just copy it from there?

- Unlimited auctions
- Search field (Some blue items offer superior damage compared to yellows and they have the same prefix/affix)
- More sorting options
- More than 3 fields for desired stats
- Able to cancel auctions
- Buyout required! (Don't you hate when 50% of the auctions are missing a buyout and you want the item now and not in 2 days?)

They screwed the whole game over pretty much. It's not just the AH, but difficulty and itemization are both irritating as well.

[StationaryHawk]

I've only had one error, and I never lost anything due to it. Otherwise, the AH has been perfectly fine for me.

3 items sold, never gotten the money and bought a helm which I haven't received

[PBitt]

Not really a heck of a lot of options, so I picked 'fine'...it needs some refining for sure, but I've found it usuable and it's helped me acquire some decent gear.

Seems I wasn't the only one experiencing problems today, EU AH is down at the moment for fixing.

[Wromthrax]

AH is fine, you can find stuff you want to buy.

What people complain is that they can't search same items to undercut..

[Deleted]

Dunno what you're talking about OP, but i can search for any items in a certain class.
I can search for wep or armor types, what stats and min amount i want on it and then i can sort the list by dmg/armor and buyout. The only bother i have is being unable to sort by remaining time on the auction.

Ah good, maybe it'll finally work better tomorrow -_-

[klaps_05]

id go with horrible, a LOT can be improved to be more user friendly

[Aquamonkey]

I don't understand why it shows me sold items...just make them disappear already

That's actually useful for posting items. You can see what is selling and for how much.

AH is actually pretty bad, but GETTING GEAR IN DIABLO SHOULDNT BE THROUGH AH ONLY (OR MOST). So its pretty fine to me, that u cant find so easily items or play ah. AH in d3 should be help tool, not "main event".
