Please tell me this is illegal

Recommended Posts

Yesterday i bought 2 weapon mods, im sure i bought them for 70k but today when i opened my mails and saw they were 700k, even if they were really 700k, isnt it illegal, i mean its pretty hard to read how many zeros in there and if i bought them by mistake, can i get my money back?

Can't belive this happened also to you, the last week I did your same mistake,losing more than 4m apb$.
Unfortunately you can't get your money back because you're supposed to read carefully the price and he can put whatever price he want. 
If I can give you and advice,next time read two or three times the price before buying something.
Also I think it's against the rules of the forum to give the name of a player publicly,whatever he did.

welcome to the marketplace of today, where if you wanna buy any kind of mods, you start by searching at the other end of the pages because yes people do that on purpose

and no you cant get your money back it isnt a scam so rip

U are right man but shit happens you know? Maybe i was dreamy in that moment.But what are game developers here for? They could of put dots between the numbers, this is their fault isnt it? Looks like i am not the only one.APB has a terrible system for like 7 years but they dont do anything about it.Hackers playing freely, gold players play in bronze districts freely, scammers steal peoples money in marketplace with dirty tricks.And aggrieved people cant get their money? okay this game is really rotten

A common issue that is easily solved by simply adding commas to the marketplace. This has been requested since closed beta, over eight years ago. @MattScott

@HexerinThis would be lovely since the text in game is very small,above all if you're playing on high resolution like me. Last time I putted an ursus for 300k  instead of 3m 'cause of the zeros. But what we can do, the only thing is being more attent to the little things sometimes. Unfortunately we cannot put commas by ourself xD. Edited by Rogda

About the modifications, usually the highest prices are between 90k and 70k,if you have a lot of money,like I had more than 5m, you don't really care about searching the lowest price since you know the highest is't more than 90k, so, like I did, I just buyed without cheking properly, and later I reconised I did a mistake losing lot of money that I worked hard for 😕

Commas are kinda hard to see for some but spaces in between zeroes to show where a comma would be can make it easier to see instead
or even both so that the commas and spaces show it all easier

Harder than just counting the zeros properly?


FWIW I bought a legendary for $70,000 when I'm sure the seller meant it to be $700,000, so thanks for balancing out the universe for me.

Sort by price when looking at things on the marketplace, then this confusion would be avoided, no?

Lol, welcome to APB, now you know to sort things.

Commas would be nice, as would defaultly sorting by low-high, but honestly this was your fault. I'm assuming you won't make that mistake again though.


But uhh, no, putting things on the MP isn't illegal.

Why are ppl disliking this?
Some time ago some max rank actively tried to "scam" me with this by messaging me "hey do you want to buy my weap for X money? But you need to buy fast" and in the marketplace i was clever enough to count the digits and avoid the loss of a couple millions.

No offense but you should learn to count the zeros. Consider it a hard lesson learned. Even if they add commas it will happen again.
