how to stack crown items?

NeKryXe

i have a lot of duplicated crown items in my character's bag and i can't find a way to stack it. the items are exactly the same, but i bought them in different days. i have a few crown experience scrolls, crown lethal poison, a few meals and potions, all of it exactly the same, but it is occupying a lot of spaces. for 4 different items it wastes about 12 spaces in the bag. i already tried to move them to the bank and back to the bag, i searched for something like roomba to fix this bug, but nothing works. any ideas on how to stack crown items?

Did you try pressing Y to stack the items?

yep, i tried that. i also tried to move it to the bank and move back to the bag. but all the items remain separated. i tried the usual log out and log in, but it doesn't help. i remember that i was able to stack crown items until a few months ago, but now it doesn't seem to work anymore. the old crown items that were stacked a long time ago, remain stacked, but not the recent ones. i bought the "starter pack" that brings 6 items for the bag, and none of those items stacked with others that i already had, and i read everything and the items are exactly the same.

I noticed this on PTS as well. Of course there it's not an issue. Never really thought about the impact it would have in game. Maybe the devs didn't either as most people probably wouldn't have multiple consumables bought at different times...? Dunno. Not trying to make excuses for them.

What I did with my 2 stacks of xp scrolls (from separate DLC purchases) is to pass them out to other chars. Alternately, just roll up a mule and store your goodies there?

They more than likely are different items as far as the item codes are concerned. If this is the case then nothing you can do will stack them up. Why would they function this way? Only ZoS can say for sure. Here's an elegant solution for ZoS to explore. Make crown items take up no inventory space. Put them in a separate item tab that doesn't consume pack space and that might encourage people to buy things they might otherwise skip due to pack limitations.

@Coatmagic i tried to move all crown items to another character and it's still not stacked.

@redspecter23 i'm pretty sure that the items are exactly the same but purchased in different days, this is an ugly bug.

i don't want to be forced to use destroy or waste those items fast so i can get free space (and my mules are all full). i wasn't aware of this bug when i bought the last items, or, i wouldn't have spent my crowns yet. we should be able to stack crown items or to return those items and get the crowns back until the bug is fixed. -- this bug should be alerted in the crown store.

Sorry, you misunderstood me. I didn't mean it allowed me to stack them. I just passed the stuff across my characters is all. Also, I only had 2 stacks that wouldn't merge to begin with, so not the extent of the problem you are having

now that we can convert unwanted crown items to crown gems, i decided to convert all my crown items that i can't stack, so i can get rid of it and get free space on my bag ...the problem is that i'm not finding any way to do that. anyone knows what to do to convert crown items to crown gems?

I know this is an old post, but the same thing is happening to me. I noticed the OP mentioned that the items that didn't stack were purchased as part of the "starter pack". I recently purchased this as well. Specifically for me it is the Crown Lethal Poisons. They must have a different code attached even though they are the same item and they stack differently. I have a stack of 150 and a stack of 255. Considering my overland potions only stack to 100, maybe this is a benefit, but it is confusing and time consuming for something that is reasonable that it "can" happen, but isn't logical that it "should" happen.
