Can't buy games.

Tried to buy call of duty black ops 2, along with a few other games but I keep getting this message: There seems to have been an error initializing or updating your transaction. Please wait a minute and try again or contact support for assistance

I have the same problem. My guess is that something went FUBAR and that it is the cause of the problem or that Steam actually disabled parts of the store in order to fix a problem.

Hope its fixed before the sale ends ._.

Try using the browser if the clinet is not working, if that dose not work try later, there may be some problrm for some time

Maybe something that has to do with them removing mods? I also dont understand how doing it in a browser would help.

It has something that is not the same
Note that some said there were able to buy, using BPM, and i know from the past i was able to buy using the Browser when the clinet did not work, also the other way around

I assume it may have something to do with how the clinet/browser conenct, or cash or something
