in Bug Reports (PC)
It's being more than a week now that theres no Astral Diamond - Zen exchange offer. Not even my listings are being able to buy Zen.

Is it bugged or the transactions are really dead?

    People need to sell more zen. :) I wanted to get some more account bank slots...but looks like there are requests for 2.4m zen at the moment. My buy offers might never go through...

    Was wondering about that. Is no one selling or is it broken
    or is the devs about to add something?

    When there are a lot of AD trying to get Zen with 500:1, it means whoever tries to sell Zen to get AD will get that done right the way. Hence, there is none showing in selling Zen. However, people are selling Zen to get AD. It is just a back log.
    Your listing is queued. You will get your Zen. It just takes a while. Usually, for each million AD backlog, it takes one day to get to yours.
    i.e. if the back log is 2.5 million and you post your listing (for 500:1) now, it takes about 2.5 days for you to get your Zen.

    They took off steam wallet so everyone who bought Zen using steam is unable to buy zen anymore.

    Thats around 70k distinct players according to steamspy. (http://steamspy.com/app/109600)

    "But they can buy using the arc website!"

    No they cant, according to steamspy from these 70k players only +-20% are from US.

    For those who dont know, steam offers regional pricing to each country making Zen effectively cheaper on steam than on arc website for regions outside of US (they made that because every country has different laws and incomes and such), the downside of buying using steeam is that you go on a probation period where for around 1-14 days everything you buy from the zen market is bound to account and you cant sell zen, but after its over you can make transactions normally.

    Besides that, using steam you can sell items from other games (like CS:GO or Dota 2 or Team Fortress ) on the steam markplace and then use the money to buy Zen.

    Now i dont know how much of their player base steam represents, but i know that at lot less people are buying zen (specially from Brazil, Russia and some countrys from asia) because they can't afford the price of US Zen.

    I might be wrong, but what i wrote makes sense, and i know that if they remove this limit of 500 AD per Zen the market will regulate itself based on offer and demand.

    BTW on neverwinter's steam forum there are lots of complains about this removal of payment method.

    TL:DR - Steam zen payment option removed, less people buys zen.

    Steam purchase has been activated again. Not sure when, but it's there.

    It was fixed on October 4th according to Panderus. The backlog dropped by about 1 million since then.
