I have just been a victim of a HORRIBLE/Accidental buy out.

I was just browsing today through different UV stuff on AH and when I thought I pressed the "Next" Button I found out I just pressed the "Buy Out"

Spent a 100k on a Magic Cloak (it has high ele def on it :P) but even still, I would NEVER spend 100k on it or even want it AT ALL!!! So I sent a email to the support if they can do anything. I even put it up on the forums to sell for 100k and on AH for 100k just to even get my money back. (hopefully I get any of them through.. I JUST WANT MY MONEY BACK!)

So here is my suggestion. Not just for me but for the other people too especially when they are just browsing through.

Please!! Put up a prompt when you are bidding or buying out a item!! Its really saddening when you spend a lot of time to farm enough crown to spend it on something you NEVER WANT.

I would say something like... If the item cost is 25k(even better if the player can choose) or more, then put up a prompt just saying "Are you sure?" or something.... This should eliminate this problem of accidentally buying stuff when you don't want to that is at a high value.

Also I would put up the limit decently high because when people are buying, it is really annoying for the players to keep pressing "ok" over and over just to buy stuff... I would think 25k or so should be okay...

Anyways, that is all I wanted to say... Hopefully I get my message through.......

Thanks! :]

As per my comments in the other post, yeah, the placement of the "buy now" button so close to the "next" button is bad GUI design, they should be moved further apart.

Yeah... it really sucks especially when you find out you bought something you don't want for a lot of money..... And it's even worst when I had to pick it up from the Mail :[ Worst feeling ever.
