Transaction error when dealing with Carrier bartender
Hi,

Today when I try to purchase some component from a carrier bartender, the sever kept returning transaction error and my purchase cannot be completed.
I tried log out and relog, also try to visit another carrier, yet I always get the same error and cannot buy anything. Anyone knows how to resolve/avoid this issue? Thank you very much.

A player owned fleet carrier can run out of commodities to sell.

I thought if a component has run out, it shouldn't be displayed in trading menu with available number?

I have the same problem, tried like 4 different carriers and always transaction error. Hopefully they will fix it soon. Maybe cause player numbers have doubled they have server problems?

Devs took a break for a week, should be back on monday (11. 11.), hopefully they will fix it asap. (source is elite dangerous twitter post from 4. 11.)

It's still broken as of Nov. 20. Don't see any reference to a fix in the update for the 21st.

This error is not only in Carriers but with upgrading suits, weapons and engineering it is a real game breaker for me and some friends.
here are some examples of this error i have a few items this occurs on with suits and weapons i fear it is the same vendor related bug as you are having.

I also get the Transaction Error when trying to buy Push from a fleet carrier. It has 42 in stock. Can't unlock another engineer because of this. Shame, I saw people had this error in 2021. https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/transaction-error-when-upgrading-suit.576424/ How is it possible to happen even 3 years later?

Fdev don't read steam. At the very least for bug reports (I have no clue why they made a steam forum for it).
Vote here (and report to if you want) :

IMO it's because the game looks less buggy; not everyone looks at bug reporting unless they are experiencing a bug. Yes, I added to the official bug report.

Though not crippling, this is non-trivial bug. I'm surprised there are not many player rage-posts about it, given that it has been an issue for a month and there are 247 posts in the official bug report.
