I have noticed something similar once when trying to manipulate a market. There was a single unit available that reappeared everytime I bought from it, I bought it 10 time got all 10 items and paid the isk for each Item but it was still their.
I could never work out if it was a bot.
My own take was someone had placed numerous sell orders at the same value and the client "Stacked" them.
I never got round to testing the theory though. I will give it a go this evening after work.
I once prayed to God for a bike, but quickly found out he didnt work that way...so I stole a bike and prayed for his forgiveness. |

EDIT: I just slapped up 4 10m unit order of Trit in Jita and they are all listed seperately. So either this is a bot, bug or an exploit IMO.

Did you view the market with the same character?
If possible could you check with a separate account/character to see if they can see all 4 orders aswell?

Are you sure it's not lag? I managed to accidentally buy-out the same person twice in a row before I realized it takes a few minutes for the market to update. I ended up with near 100 drones instead of the 50 I wanted.
If it was Lag then its an even bigger problem which would allow for item duplication.
ie place an order and buy it many times in laggy periods if buying it from yourself you would be generating items for free.

I used same char, but did log out and back in for the sake of doing it.
My closest other toon is 30 mins from Jita. I might do it tomorrow, but worth checking out.

Just one last comment and will leave it at that. Anyone reading this thread can do the test themselves.
Suppose there are more than one order in the market priced the lowest. For instance, One selling 20,000 units tritanium at 2.90 One selling 100,000 units tritanium at 2.90
Typically the one with the lowest amount will sort first (the 20,000 units). If I right click the 20,000 to purchase it (because it is listed first) you will notice that next time you look in the market you will see
One selling 20,000 units tritanium at 2.90 One selling 80,000 units tritanium at 2.90
You can repeat the same process five more times until both orders go away, or you can right click the largest order (100,000) from the beginning and purchase the 20,000 order second.
Right click any heading on the market tab, you can set a Secondry filter.
No bug, no problem, working as intended. If you don't like it filtered by volume after price, simply set it to something else.

I've now set up numerous orders at the same value and they all show when looked at by a separate account so looks as if they may not be the case.
i have no lag at the moment so unsure if that would play a roll may try on sunday in Jita lol
