During the 4-6 hour window later I had the highest standing order price.

What happened??

the highest standing order is not the one that gets it necessarily...it's basically a line where whoever put in the first order gets it...so whoever had the longest standing order at $80 or higher got it.

For standings orders the first order placed gets first shot at any shipment that fits its criteria. If someone has an order for 10M turrets at $100 or less, then it will buy turrets from the first shipment that costs $100 or less. If it buys 10M turrets or runs out of money the order is canceled, otherwise it moves to the end of the queue and second in line will buy the next shipment of cheap turrets.

In the Q&A thread the person meant that you had to have the highest priced standing order, be the only person with that priced standing order, and have the shipment come in above the threshold of the second highest priced standing order. Obviously at that point it becomes clear standing orders are not useful in market transfers.

if you want to transfer, put your SO at the highest, say $160 and then *SELL AT THE SAME PRICE!

=/

course somebody else could come along and put an SO at the same price and get them...

which you can't really see happening...

And of course you would have to buyout everything to get up to $160 if it isn't already there...

I successfully transfered some goods last set, I'll tell you how for $10. Requires knowledge of how the queue works and being a badass

what's your country number? i will FA you $10...

lol

rofl @ $10 :P

lol I got some of that, thanks :P
