How to fix Star Citizen Transaction Cost Mismatch bug

The biggest update to Star Citizen is here bringing in a ton of new content, reworks, and system balances all across the universe. If you’re trying to dabble in trading/hauling commodities to make some extract aUEC, you may have encountered a pesky new message when trying to trade. Here is how to fix the Star Citizen Transaction Cost Mismatch bug that can occur when trying to sell various commodities.

How to fix Transaction Cost Mismatch

You can fix the Transaction Cost Mismatch bug when trying to sell commodities by splitting the stack size of the goods you are trying to sell into sizes of 3, then selling them each one stack at a time. The new update brought back a pesky bug that caused the sale of high volumes of commodities to result in the Transaction Cost Mismatch bug due to it not being able to properly calculate prices based on future sales, which results in the error.

This error message has occurred before and was fixed by the developers, so it’s likely it will be fixed again. However, if you need the aUEC and can’t wait for the bug to be resolved, this temporary workaround will work on all items you may be trying to sell including gems. Break it all down into stack sizes of 3 or less.

For example, if you have 60 Dolvine and are getting the Transaction Cost Mismatch error in Star Citizen when trying to sell, try breaking it into 20 stacks of 3 Dolvine, and selling each stack one at a time. This appears to be the only workaround at this time, so if you have a really big stack of items that would take a long time to split up into stacks of 3, you may want to just hold off on selling until a bug fix is implemented.
