Rolled back several hours, lost all of my gold returned from buy orders

I’m not good at writing long descriptive paragraphs so I’m going to get straight to the point here.

I was using the TP before it went down and noticed none of my buy orders were going through so I cancelled my remaining buy orders, received my gold and logged out to clean and make lunch. Fastforward an hour or so I log back in, all is well. I notice the TP is down so I log out (3:50pm’ish EST? I noticed it at 3:58 when a guild member said he had been rolled back) to switch characters and log back in and everything is gone.

I’m pretty livid right now considering I just lost the only meaningful progress Iv made in this game since launch, which was quite a substantial amount.

Guild mate of mine lost half their gold because they bought something, and as they closed the trading post the game crashed. It apparently made them buy 2 of the item they were purchasing because the amount missing was exactly twice the cost of what they bought. They went from nearly 24g(I think) to about 4g in less time than it takes to relaunch the game.

I heard of a situation like this today, but oddly, after a while, the gold and item balances rectified themselves. Would you let me know if that happens with your guildie?
