Bought 5000 from a seller that had exactly 5000 melted capacitor console, the order was 5th from the top. Bought it because I needed the quantity. Pressed buy, ALL 5 orders that was in front of this order disappeared and I received my 5000, BUT when I checked my wallet, I bought it from 5 different people and the price for the items above the 5000 was lower in price, sooooo wtf happened and how did it happen, a new market script ? |

If there are 5 sellers in a station each selling at a different price,
30 .05 30 .06 30 .07 30 .08 30 .09
and you right click on any one of these to buy, it will automatically purchase from the cheapest items.(or the top if prices are identical)
Even if you click on the .09 you'll still get the cheapest as the natural assumption is that you want the goods as cheap as possible.
This changes accordingly when other stations/systems come into play. It's not possible to buy an item from a station until the cheaper items in that station have been purchased first. |

did you get the part where the originial 5000 was already up to be sold. IF it happened as you say it did then the one I picked would still have leftover items to be sold on that order |

It always buys from the cheapest order on the market, at the price you specify (from the order you click). .

So you are saying you wanted to buy 5000 of something. willing to pay the higher price. Got the 5000 and paid the higher price and you got screwed? |

You cannot chose which order to buy from, but, you can pick any price above the order price you want.
The method you used is commonly used when buying in bulk to save clicking on every damn order Fluffy Bunny Pic! |

Set your overview to have the lowest price as the top choice. The sale always goes to the lowest price choice.
You can pay more than the lowest if you select one that is higher, but the orders will always be filled by the lowest order first. |

I feel like my reading comprehension is failing me.
I routinely see sell transactions for higher than my sell price, and this is due to people clicking on another higher priced order and buying. This has been true since the beginning of time. If this is no longer true, I'm truly not fussed because I've always hated that mechanic even while benefiting from it (as I always hated stupidly low factory costs, and am starting to love the new changes) but if the mechanic has changed only out of curiosity I'd like to know.

It is like it always was. The OP confused matters.
He writes "I bought it from 5 different people and the price for the items above the 5000 was lower in price".
What he means is "the ANNOUNCED price for the items above the 5000 was lower in price", not the price he PAID for them. He paid the higher price because he clicked the higher price, as always happens. I just tested it now. |

Obviously. You told your Broker you want 5000 XXX at XX.XX ISK and he gave you what you wanted.
If you want to pay less you have to tell him 37 at XX.XX ISK, 537 at XX.XX ISK etc... |

^this, which is a pain.
So, if the prices are "close enough", then you just say 5,000 at XX.XX ISK.
Now, the market doesn't refresh all that fast, so if you see:
30.00 -- 100 30.01 -- 325 30.02 -- 500 30.03 -- 175 30.04 -- 500 30.05 -- 10,000
and you buy 5,000 at 30.05, you have the possibility of seeing something like this in your wallet:
Player 1 - 325 Player 2 - 500 Player 3 - 175 Player 4 - 500 Player 5 - 3500
Because that first order (100 @ 30.00) got bought, and the market didn't refresh until AFTER you submitted your order. One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia |
