Zodiac Sword Skin Account Bound
Thanks for the report, Nar.
Pictures of the issue, in case they help.
EDIT: Had to take new ones with fraps because GW2’s screenshot function hides the item information window.

..,Which I guess I could report, also. Minor bug – taking a screenshot in game with the print screen key hides any mouse-over windows.
This issue should be resolved with today’s update.
- Zodiac sword skins are now tradable.

Thanks!
What about old Dragon Jade skins!?
Although the sword skin is now tradeable it isn’t showing up on TP searches still.

They don’t want you to have them.
I predict a lot of people getting scammed in Zodiac sword mail scams.
Sword skin is still not sellable although it is not accountbound.
Thank you, sploosh. Can it be mailed? I’m not asking you to mail it to me, just to see if the mail window allows you to attach it.
All I want to do is buy a sword :c

That’s odd sploosh, I had the option to put mine on the TP but it just isn’t showing up in searches:

Talked with Sploosh in game, apparently Zodiac sword skins cannot be mailed, either.
I’m guessing this is the same issue that people with pre-existing fused and sclerite skins are encountering, except that since there aren’t any zodiac swords on the trading post, there isn’t a currently a workaround.
So they aren’t showing up in TP searches for you either?
Here are those pictures I put up again, this time I’ve uploaded them properly.

No. When I search “zodiac,” i get 15 results. When I search “zodiac sword,” the greatsword skin comes up. If yours can be attached and you’re interested in trading by mail, I sent you a PM, but if you’re uncomfortable with that, I understand and I’ll just have to wait on a fix.

I bet this has something to do with the ‘old ones aren’t tradable, new ones are’ thing. Zodiac swords from before this update aren’t tradable, only new ones are. Now you feel my pain with my Fused Dagger Skin sitting uselessly in my bank.
Hope if and when the fix comes it is retroactive to all the orphaned weapon skins.
Since this original bug that this thread was made for has been fixed, I’ve opened up a new thread for the new issues that have arisen since then. Follow that here:
I can confirm that as of 23Aug13 at 4:20 PST the Zodiac Sword Skin in my inventory, while no longer saying account bound, can NOT BE TRADED OR SOLD…. the options to do so simply are not there. Nor can it be mailed.
