I just ordered Linden dollars off of the GOM (Gaming Open market) web site. I recieved a message saying that since my avatar is under 30 days old, they were going to have to "manually" process my order. Does anyone here know how long that might take? The reason I bought from them is because they said the transfer would be instant, and there is a piece of land I am trying to buy before someone else purchases it. Thanks.

IM the owner of the land. Most land owners will be happy to set the land so that only you can buy it and give you a few days.  |

I may end up having to do this, as I haven't heard anything from GOM, and it's late at night. *sigh* I can't get back on the computer for awhile to im them yet though, someone is on the computer I use to play Second Life. *bigger sigh* This computer only gets on the internet. GAH! |

Stymeid,
The GOM staff has been scammed more than once and implemented the 30-day wait to help protect itself against fraud. I would check their site for a supprt email address. email them, and request a rush on the request. They are good folks, and I they should be able to help you out.

From: Hiro Pendragon 30-day wait OMG, 30 days??? I can understand, but they should have stated that on their web site - I wouldn't have ordered then. I'm going to have to write to them. |

Uh... there's no 30 day wait. As far as I know, they just handle orders manually if they belong to accounts who are under 30 days old.

On the "Deposit Cash - Step 2 - Confirmation" page, in bright red, just above the "Paypal click here to pay" button, it has this: From: GOM website Warning: If your avatar is younger than 30 days old, your deposit will be held while we verify you.

I got ahold of the owner of the property, and they said they would be happy to hold it for me. So everything will be fine now. Thanks everyone for the help, I really appreciate it. |
