I just received my first purchased Beech. I'm sure I had at least 4,500,000 in cash before it arrived as thats what I had earlier today (well after I had placed the down payment on the plane). I log in and find my cash below negative 2,000,000. I think I was charged 9,000,000 on delivery on top of the 4,500,000 down payment. Am I missing something or is this a glitch? Just thought I would put this out there so that if its a glitch it could get solved right quick.

Also, its gyped.
Also, its a racist term (referencing Roma or Gypsies)

spot on with the used aircraft idea. I had forgotten I had thrown down a bid. I figured they'd ask for confirmation before the plane was actually purchased. thanks for pointing that out.

Do you know how much you were debited? Do you know how much you bid? did they match? I only ask, becuase I'm trying to figure out how this whole new system works. I sold my plane and only got half the $$$ :-(

I sold a plane as well, went for 4 mil, even though I put min big much higher than that.

I'm offering more than the depreciated value for a Beechcraft yet getting no 'acceptance' or whatever you need now.
Also, how can I get my grubby little hands on a DC9 or B707 or a L1101? You can't buy them new, so how can someone buy them off someone who can't get them in the first place? :puzzled:
Looks like a good system of supply and demand, maybe we're just using it wrong?

Strange also, got a message from another player, they purchased off the market a B1900
They had 7.4M in cash, they placed a bid for $6.9M
The aircraft was purchased and now they went into Red - Minus 1.1m
So, looks like Miller is charging a fee to operate the used aircraft market like 20% or more.

The fee of 20% I think is really gonna hurt the small airlines who don't know that yet. I'd put a notice on the buy used a/c page that it's going to occur, but I think it's a good idea as it will discourage people from just buying every a/c they can find, as everyone rapidly expanding is a bit stupid and unrealistic IMHO.

sounds a lot more like a bug than a fee
