Purchase Pending

[DaveH 14]

Is there any site other than Marketplace to buy the Cirrus Vision Jet ?

Not yet 

If you've had purchase pending for a few days you'll have to contact Microsoft support and they can either refund you or force it to go through.

Did you try starting the sim without selecting "run as administrator"? That is what I have to do to get any purchase to download.

I have to do the same.

I've asked them (FlightFX) in their Discord channel about selling the Vision Jet though the Marketplace only, and they replied that "this is not going to change in the foreseeable future...".

Everytime I try to buy anything on the in game market place, it says purchase pending, but does nothing. Eventually it will change to purchase failed. 

I am using the STEAM edition and this is what works for me....

After buying an item, what I do is wait about 30 seconds for the purchase in process window to appear, then I click purchase again. It will immediately give me a purchase pending already in progress notification. When it does this select CANCEL on the popup window. Do Not Re-purchase, then usually within 10 seconds it will then say download in progress.

Its like you have to remind it that you just purchased something to get it moving along...

That's exactly why I haven't bought it yet. I made the mistake early on of buying things through the Marketplace. Now it takes forever to update them and you're locked into the files the way they are.

Also, I never got an invoice that showed my purchases, only a blanket dollar amounts.

They've said that even if they ever offer it outside the Marketplace, that they'll still hold off on releasing to the other stores until the Marketplace is ready to drop an update. I don't like the policy, but I can respect it. I'm still going to wait for another site to offer it and then I'll consider it.

Steam version here. 

On the very rare occasions I do fancy something off the Marketplace I always first "fill up" my Steam wallet with the adequate amount of cash, and then proceed to my purchase within the sim. 

Never got a "Purchase Pending" with this method, maybe coincidental since I tend to avoid the place like the plague.

Cheers,

Weird as the HJET eventually released on other platforms outside of Marketplace.😒

I too asked them on their Discord and got the answer I shared above.

Same, if I try to purchase on marketplace starting the sim with administrator rights, I get the pending message.

Support has suggested to me putting funds in my steam account first as mentioned above as one possible fix.  They also suggested buying things from other vendors which was kind of funny.

This ongoing issue is one of several reasons I avoid the in game marketplace unless there’s no other purchase option.

Finally got the Vision Jet purchased 😀. After several hours trying to track down the problem, found that marketplace was waiting for approval for the sale by PayPal.  Then I just used a credit card to purchase.  Yes, Market Place is really a problem 😝.
