So, i finally reached the 16000 credits, i got blocked 7 days because of "logging into a new device" (just used google chrome), and still after the 7 days, storebot still refuses to trade me a key, what can i do to fix this?

It doesn't show the correct prices in game. If it did you could abuse it to get all of their keys.

...what, no...

I don't know what displays in game, but it's a higher price to buy than it is to sell, naturally. That's not abusable.

Should worded my post better. The time I last checked the prices it was 100 cred per scrap and keys were 30 ref. So it was 30 ref for a key + 12.22 ref

Due to current prices, it's possible to dupe credits since the credit gain for selling keys is too low compared to the raw metal equivalent.

1 key = 29 ref (rough estimate)
1 ref = 9 scrap
9 scrap = 810 credits
29 x 810 = 23490 credits
23490 credits > 22500 credits

Therefore it's possible to buy a key for 22500 credits, sell it back (EDIT: after converting it to metal), and get a 1800 credit net gain.

EDIT: For future readers, I edited the first part so it doesn't sound so stupid even though it's been fixed already

Here's the problem, let me do some math.

I've done this math before but from what I can tell you discount metal/keys by 90% when you give them back. But the math on the key doesn't work.

1 key = 29 ref (rough estimate)
1 ref = 9 scrap
9 scrap = 810 credits
29 x 810 = 23490 credits
23490 credits > 22500 credits

Therefore it's possible to buy a key for 22500 credits, sell it back, and get a 1800 credit net gain.

No. That's not how it works. Read what I posted.

You get 20250.
It costs you 22500.

Isn't that if you give it just the key? I'm talking about converting it into metal, then giving the bot the metal (sorry if I didn't make that clear).

EDIT: I'll point out that I've converted a key to 30 metal (EDIT: refined) before, then sold it to the bot (30 ref at 810 credits each is exactly 24300 credits, the price of donor).

I have updated the key price to reflect the price it takes to buy donator for 1 month. Thanks for your input
