Misleading AH message

When you attempt to buy out an item on the auction house with insufficient AD to make the purchase, you get the error message:

Auction is closed.
Unable to make this purchase. Please try again later.

The actual error message should be more like

Insufficient funds.

    Yea I first noticed this a few weeks ago and I at first thought the Auction was closed or couldn't figure out what was going on. Cause while most people generally have a good idea of the AD they have on their toon sometimes you are just searching and see something you like and think you have close to the amount required...

    Just the error message is very misleading and never causes you to even think or check to see how much Astral Diamond you actually have or if you should possibly buy some with Zen. I agree 'Auction is closed' had me try 2 or 3 times wondering what was the cause before I realized I didn't have enough Astral Diamonds...

    Still I agree the message should be, "Insufficient Astral Diamonds" and should provide a link to the AD:Zen exchange for those who wish to buy some. :)
