Market items gone instantly

i figure this is bots at work but read up on the issue of bots ruining the market.  lots of info, most years old now.  is anything being done to remedy this?  can't even get overpriced BP rounds because bots buying up stacks instantaneously.  unfair advantage which could also be referred to as cheating.  i know there are other pressing issues (match making times are redonkulous).  but i hope there is someone working to resolve this. its not fair for the average gamer who doesnt have a bot setup. not hating on the game, love the game. just dont like unfair advantages for some

Yes there are bots, but there are also thousands of players trying to click on the same items that you are. The whole underlying foundation of the market is poorly constructed. They should really rethink it and start from scratch.

I guess it's too bad this isn't a BETA where things can be tested to see how they work...

The market is unfortunately riddled with bots...  One of my very few complaints about the game.

Yeah it's a total joke I am finding being new to the game/auction house. I can't stand games where they let bots ruin it. Hopefully some of all this cash the devs should have got from the influx of sales recently can go into paying somebody to program a better auction house.

Plenty of games manage it fine. Obviously other players are also doing the same, but spamming click and 'y' at the same time as the seconds hit 0.00 and never getting anything shows there is an issue.
