merchant purchases

flyball

So why are tradebar merchant purchase bound to character as opposed to bound to account like other means of purchasing items. I just waste 1000 tradebars on Arturias music box which my character had but was going to move to another character and it came character bound and not account bound. (that toon already has one bound to him and does not need another.

Had I known the tb merchant is binding to character I would have transfered the tradebars to my other character and made the purchase. I kind of fell ripped off.

A big portion of T-bar purchase is bound to character. It is on the tooltip telling you how it is bound. It is the same for any kind of purchase in various stores. "Same" in terms of "you have to check every time and you cannot assume the bound type". What you bought yesterday potentially can be changed when you buy the same thing tomorrow.

That sucks Easy enough to happen though. Put in a support ticket and see if they will move it for you.

Stick the trade bars in your bank and pull them out on the character you want the trinket on.

This is why I always put my tradebars in the bank ever since they added that feature... Just saying.
