Diablo III Real-Money Auction House Delayed Again

If you logged into Diablo III today, perhaps you noticed the real-money auction house is not yet live. According to an in-game notification, the real-money version of Diablo III’s auction house will go live on June 12, 2012.

This is the third time the real-money auction house has been delayed. Initially it was expected to launch one week following the game’s May 15 release date, then it was pushed to May 29.

Over the course of the past two weeks the virtual currency auction house has frequently been down for maintenance as Blizzard addressed technical issues.

“We're also continuing to investigate latency affecting search results, active auction lists, posting auctions, and successful sales and purchases on the gold auction house, and hope to have all transactions running smoothly as soon as possible,” said a recent official post.

As of this moment, the virtual currency auction house is up and running, but it’s not possible to sell commodities such as crafting components and gems.
