I was just looking up a guild on the armory when I noticed the news feed showed someone had purchased valor boots already....how could this be or is it a mistake?

only way i can think of it is buying something before patch and selling it afterwards... thought it wasn't possible though...
sounds exploit or armory bug...

Some peoples valor cap reset upon server transfer (maybe faction transfer?), so they could have done that.
Update: He's neutral rep with the guild, so thats probably the case.

Does the conquest -> valor conversion allow you to go over cap? That would be another way.

only way i could think of that it could be poss is if his valor didnt get converted to JP on patchday cause of some odd glitch.
or it might be as Rhiz says but then again isnt that considered as an exploit?Last edited by lanceb; 2011-12-05 at 05:07 PM.

You cannot convert conquest to valor to the above. I can't believe that waiting 1 week for poorly itemized gear is worth $15-$20 to some people.

Could have bought something before the patch and sell afterwards - the way Blues explained recent "fix" would prevent that exploit from happening was still leaving a way to go around it (unless they didn't mention everything in that post - didn't try myself so can't be sure).

If you transferred for the sole reason of getting extra VP, then yeah.. But I don't think Blizzard flags people for that, or else they'd fix it. :-P Originally Posted by lanceb

I have my cloak - got it because I server transferred. I had a total of 2k VP this week. Unfortunately, I wasted $50 total on xfers in 2 weeks...stupid work schedule.

When i realm changed on my rogue probably like a month and half ago now, my currencies got reset. Meaning I got to reach valor/conquest cap twice in one week. Thought it odd at the time and wondered if people did it when seasons just come out, guess I wondered right.

WTF?
So we still have an hole like this after the Stars debacle last tier?
Honestly, these are the kinds of things that really make me want to quit.
Just fucking ridiculous.

Maybe I'm blind but I don't see anywhere in that activity feed where it says he purchased the new valor boots.

It's a known bug where by using a VP wand or relic to transmog somthing the 'sell back to vendor' thing appears on the transmogged Wand. You sell them both back to the vendor for 1400 VP + 300 = 1700 VP.
It has been hotfixed already.
It was using the same method for transmogging heirloom gear and sending to a lvl 1 alt.
The blue text showing how long you got left to vendor is classed as Enchant, there is a bug with transmog that allows you to duplicate enchants.
