I made a clip on twitch.tv of a bug I encountered during the game. I was trying to buy hourglass but unable to. At first, I thought there was a visual bug and I didn't have the money, but that was not the case. I had all items + 2300 gold and still was unable to buy it. I purchased all individual items once more with the same result.

As a last resort. I disconnected from the game and reconnected. After this, I was able to buy it.

From what I've come across, try selling your boots and undoing. If that doesn't work, try selling -everything- and then undoing. This usually fixes it for me, but sometimes it doesn't work :s. Hopefully your video will provide useful insight to Riot so they can fix it :3.

I will try that next time, thanks for the tip. In my case reconnecting was the solution. But, in the midst of losing the battle I can imagine this being a bigger problem then it was in my case.

yes, this bug is around for a few days, it's not only hourglass. don't know what it takes riot so long to fix such a big bug that can potentially lose you the whole game. happend to me twice today when I couldn't finish athens and ninja tabs. had to disconnect. luckily, my team did well so it was not gamechanging.

Exactly, we don't know. So let's give them the time to fix it.

This bug has happened to my girlfriend and I both, while trying to upgrade prerequisite items into a completed final item. Our items this happened on were Nashor's Tooth, Rabadon's Deathcap, Lich Bane, and Zhonya's Hourglass. So far 2 different games for me, one for her. VERY gamebreaking when it happens. Riot, we need you guys need to read these forum posts about it and take this seriously.
