Can't buy gems since patch?

I’ve bought gems before without any issues (some several days ago, actually), but neither my wife nor I can buy any now — clicking “Trade” just redirects to an empty page. I thought this might just be a “server overload” issue, but others in map-chat say they’re not having any problems.

Thanks

When you say “buy gems”, do you mean clicking the “Buy Gems” button in the Gem Store? Or trading gold for gems in the Currency Exchange?

Ok, we are looking into possible problems with the Currency Exchange. This doesn’t happen all the time. It is only when you try to trade with certain amounts. We don’t have all the information yet, but we’re investigating and I’ll let you all know when we believe we have it fixed.

Thanks for the report and thanks for playing!

Okay, can you all be kind enough to try again and report back with a status?

Again, this should be for Gold to Gems using the Currency Exchange.
