You list an item on the AION 2 Market and the game hits you with “Listing pending…” Then nothing happens. I’d panic too. But relax, because your item isn’t sold or deleted. It just isn’t live yet. NC hasn’t published a timer for it, so I’ll cover what players have actually seen and what not to do before you burn Kina on a relist. Everything below is current as of October 13, 2026.
What You’ll Read:
What Does Listing Pending Mean in AION 2
The Market has your sale, but it isn’t fully active yet.
Once you confirm a listing, the game tells you the item was registered but could take some time to become effective. Open Main Menu > Market > List, and you’ll see “Listing pending…” next to it. That’s the whole status.
It doesn’t mean the item sold, got deleted, or glitched out. NC also hasn’t said it’s a penalty or a flag on your account. The wording is vague enough that I get why people freak out, though.
How Long Does Listing Pending Last
Most players have reported being stuck here for 5 to 30 minutes! Although that can be more or less for you. The wait can cost you. Players on Reddit say items get undercut while they sit in limbo. And no, it isn’t 72 hours. That number belongs to a different system, which I cover below.
What to Do While Your Listing Is Pending
Waiting can be annoying. You can log back in once if the screen looks off, then try these in the meantime.
Check the Right Tab
Most “my item vanished” panic comes from looking in the wrong place, and the Market UI doesn’t exactly help. Go to Main Menu > Market and check these:
- List: your active and pending sales, capped at 10.
- Settlement: sold items show a red marker here. Click it or press F to claim your Kina.
- Settlement Details: your finished sales history.
Cancelled items come back through Select and Retrieve on the List tab. Selling a Kina Chest? That goes through the Exchange, not the Market. Use the switch in the upper-left corner.
Don’t Cancel and Relist
I know the urge. The status just sits there, and you want to hit Cancel Sale and try again. Don’t.
The registration fee is charged the moment you list, and the game says cancelling or relisting won’t refund it. Resale Selection charges a fresh fee on top. For example, the fee on a 71,775 Kina listing is 1,435 Kina, roughly 2%! It came out of bound Kina first, so it can quietly eat the funds you can’t spend on the Market anyway.
That’s one test on one server, so your exact fee may differ. Either way, every relist is a paid reset on a wait you can’t speed up. Leave it alone unless the price is genuinely wrong.
Listing Pending vs Pending Quna
If you searched “pending” and landed on a 72-hour answer, that’s the wrong feature.
Pending Quna is a currency state. Per Global client data (version 2.0.6.0), it becomes Paid Quna after a 72-hour wait. You’ll see it marked in red in your currency info. I hit it when a 600 Quna appearance edit was blocked even though my balance looked high enough.
That timer has nothing to do with items you list for Kina. The names are close and the screens look similar, so it’s easy to mix them up. Honestly, NC could have picked a different word.
Why Is My Listing Pending
Honest answer: nobody outside NC knows.
The anti-bot machinery is real. Global has a Trust Level next to your Kina, and players report its tooltip affects your daily purchase and settlement limits. On October 10, NC also restricted 4,996 accounts for gold farming, bots, real-money trading and abnormal trade patterns.
But a pending listing doesn’t mean you’re flagged. What can cost you the account is buying Kina or Quna from third-party sellers. NC says that violates the Terms of Service.
Sold But No Kina Received
This is a different problem from Listing Pending. The item has already sold.
Sold items don’t pay out automatically. Open the Settlement tab (or press F) and claim the total. Expect less than your asking price. On the 71,775 Kina sale, the payout was 64,597 Kina after the 10% sale tax. With the registration fee, that’s about 88% of the sale price.
If you claimed it and still got nothing, you’re not alone. Several Reddit players reported the same thing, and a relog didn’t help them. The best approach here is to contact support (next section).
Last Resort: Contact NC Support
If your item has been pending well past the 5 to 30 minutes players reported, and it isn’t in List, Retrieve, or Settlement, it’s time to file a ticket. Same goes for sold items whose Kina never arrived.
Send support the details up front so they don’t have to ask:
- Item name and quantity
- Server and character name
- Time you registered the sale
- The exact status text you see
- Screenshots of the List, Retrieve, and Settlement tabs

FAQ
Does a pending listing block my server transfer?
Yes. NC’s October 9 notice says active listings, items waiting for collection, and unpaid sale proceeds all block a transfer. Clear all three first.
Can I trade directly with a friend instead?
No. NC disabled direct player-to-player trades on Global (announced September 19) to fight bots. The Market is the only way to trade.
Is the World Market live?
Not yet. As of October 12, only the per-server Market is live, and no release date has been announced.
