Last night, a very good friend asked if I would please take some of his buyable items, and hold them for his other account. No problem
I have helped in situations like this many times without a hitch.
So, a few minutes later his main character and I met up in my guest room so that I could give him his stuff. Well, after placing the limit of goods into the trade window, VMK sent a message congratulating the Everest ride builders for a job well done. My computer started making a terrible noise whenever I tried to click on anything, and nothing was happening, so I exited the trade window.
Now I didnt think it was going to be a huge problem because I know from experience that if trading gets interrupted, everything goes back into inventory. Well, when I went to give him his stuff for the second time yup, you guessed it the one item that was missing was bat magic. Arg!
The way I look at it, either I messed up somehow, or something went crazy on VMK but it sure wasnt worth loosing a friend over.
Fortunately, I have played my fair share of pirates recently, and had enough to give him my pin, and still purchase another bat magic from the Emporium. I am not angry just curious? Did I do something wrong? That magic was definitely there before the error - and definitely gone afterwards. Has this ever happened to anyone else? Should I let VMK know what happened?
By the way, my friend felt just awful about what had happened, and offered many times to purchase the pin for me. I just couldnt do it my trade my mistake.
