i just got an e-mail the important part is as follows reagarding the encrypted data cube being bound
"Greetings,

I am Protocol Droid M0-T0, Human-Cyborg Relations.

Thank you for contacting us about the issue you encountered. This particular case appears to have been caused by a bug within the game that will need to be corrected in a future game update and as such, cannot be corrected by Customer Service."

so seems it will be addressed soon

Hmm, no. . All CS said was that because they saw it as a bug, it wasn't their problem. They never said that they had alerted anybody in IT to it...

Sorry if this seems OTT, but I've been in enough big businesses to know that such situations don't tend to result in people in one silo talking to those in the next one...

Would be great to get a response from Bioware in this thread.
Do, or do not. There is no "try".

On canitna tour, they said that the cubes should probably not bind and that they will have to talk to devs about it, so I guess it will be fixed

don't worry. for only 400 CC you will be able to unbind them so you can trade or GTN the cubes. unfortunately that feature was broken along with the server transfers we were promised a week ago but that didn't turn up. if they weren't busy trying to feverishly datamine KOTOR in order to find some other minor, bit character or NPC in order to use their gear and armor in the next cartel pack, they'd figure it out faster.

I guess I'll skip this pack then, I didn't see anything I really fancy anyway, and most of my characters already have a full cargohold with all bays unlocked. (account wide unlock, one of the better things to spend your CC on, third on my priority unlocks after full inventory unlock (firrst) and rocketboots (second).

Sell the spares first, then use them. I'm glad I saw this thread.

I think I've seen this type of item behavior before in the game, I can't think of what it was though, at least not right now. I chalked it up to poor coding and the game not being able to recognize duplicate but separate items.

Well you may not get the chance to sell them if they auto-bind to you...

I never had any problems with mine. Mine were never shown as bound, and I was able to trade them just fine as soon as the timer expired.

Whatever bug you may be affected by, it hasn't hit everyone.
If you pick up a novel, and see pages 2-899 only as obstacles between pages 1 and 900, then it may just be that you don't like reading.

Agreed. There's an interesting inconsistency here. If they want to give me a limitless supply of lottery boxes, happy to test it for them.

BIOWARE: any chance of an update? How soon can we use our stuff, and should CS be as unhelpful as they were? First post describes the whole problem.
