Can't buy anything

Everything in all stores is grayed out the way that items sometimes are when they cost more than what you have. This bug seemed to start with the 1/17/19 patch for me. It includes all items in all stores on all of my characters.

    After seeing another thread: https://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/startrekonline/#/discussion/1246279/cant-buy-bridge-officers-training-manuals-at-star-base I now have the problem solved.

    To quote myself from that one:
    I had 108 spaces free in the main inventory, and it was giving me issues.
    After clearing the overflow bag, things now work again.

    Apparently after the 1/17/19 patch, a duplicate non-combat shuttle pet was delivered to the overflow bag of every character on my account even though none of my characters are out of inventory space and most of them already have or had a copy of the pet. Removing the pet from the overflow bag removes the bug preventing me from using the stores.

    Ridiculous I'm not taking out my pets from overflow.

    You can take your pets out of overflow and not have them deleted.

    All this is great but what if you can't open your overflow bag? This has been a problem with the overflow ever since I can remember and I've been playing since 2012. But I have never had it effect my use of the npc stores or replicator before.

    To get your overflow bag to open: sign out of character, then sign back in. Open the overflow bag.
    I don't know why it gets hung up like this. My fleet leader told me that is how to unlock it last time it happened to me.

    you can also just type in /lootcancel, this will allow you to access the overflow bag without having to log out and back in.
    LTS and loving it.

    Of course it would be much easier if they simply fixed the issue. It's been a problem for at about 6 years now that I can remember. Why is it left to us to find workarounds? Thanks for reminding me about /lootcancel. I'd forgotten about that.

    That method has never been a reliable solution, but thanks for at least mentioning it.

    I saw in the patch notes that this was supposed to have been fixed but it isn't
