Trade post still unusable 99% of the time.
Seriously, 99% of the time I get a “net::ERR_TIMED_OUT” error. This has been happening for over a year now. The gem store seems to work just fine though. -rolleyes-
Two troubleshooting steps seem to resolve TP issues for most people.
- Clear out your GW2 cache. Instructions in the Account & Tech issue forum, in a sticky. (Apparently, sometimes a single element gets borked and prevents the TP from loading.)
- Recreate your GW2 settings file (“local.dat” is located in your documents folder under GW or see the instructions in a sticky in Accounts & Tech forum). Resetting this will also clear out some saved options, e.g. if you have the launcher remember your userID, so not everyone likes to take this step.
If neither of these options works, you’ll need to create a support ticket (follow the link in the upper left of this page to Support). The TP works for nearly every nearly all the time, so ANet would need to work with you directly to track down whatever the underlying issue is.
Good luck.

I have a different problem with the TP. Basically anytime I try to list an item to sell it takes like 10+ seconds for me to be able to edit the price for it. It bugs out every time when the little prompt comes up.

Same steps are worth trying for above. The TP is supposed to cache (meaning temporarily store) a lot of the data that appears in the screen. Apparently, it’s doing a poor job of that and/or refreshing that cache, which nearly always means the cache itself is borked in some way. That’s why it helps to clear it out.
And again, if those steps don’t help (or if for any reason, you don’t feel comfortable following them), contact Support — they’ll walk you through troubleshooting steps and be able to give you the individualized help you need to solve what amounts to an individualized issue.
