How many did you buy?

What do you need so many bundles for?

3 per Paypal account/card. You can buy one more after a few days with the same method and reach the limit again. Use another payment method/make another Paypal account to get around it.

You have to wait more then day after 3 purchase

Tweet by Humble Bundle: Please don't resell $1 Humble Bundles on eBay or elsewhere. That is not cool!

I think it's 3 per 24 hours + per payment method or CC.
You can ask Humble support to RESET your limit.

IT's still weird. My Friend got the same problem. He already waited a day or two, tried other ways to buy it and still the same problem. Although, he is able to buy Humble Bundle weekly... In the other hand, another Friend of mine has bought many copies of the bundle without problems using just one PayPal account... IT's really wierd. I'd be really happy if we could be able to buy as many Bundles as possible since we are helping charities as well!
I know the thing about reselling... It's really bad seeing it and people mnaking profit out of these games while other who don't know about Humble Bundle could save the money and/or help charities...
I still think it should be allowed to buy as many as one wants Humble Bundles as gifts (who knows how many Friend certain person have or how many copies want he/she to gift)?

PS. I'm not complaining, just wondering and saying.

The other day I was attempting to buy a gift URL for a friend of mine, but accidentally just bought a bundle. So I made another purchase, this time making sure that it was a gift URL I was purchasing. Then, a few hours later, I attempted to upgrade my original (personal) bundle purchase to above the average, so I could give the Sims 3 keys to my wife, but I was hit with the same message as the OP. I got around it by entering my credit card number directly, rather than attempting to use PayPal.

This happened to me too today. I had bought one for myself, two to trade for 1 TF2 key as they were the same value and I didn't have enough money to add wallet funds, and when I wanted to buy another one today for a friend, that message popped. I used my credit card directly instead of paypal and it worked.

3 purchases per day folks.

Use bitcoin, buy as many as you want :))

I wouldn't be surprised if Humble started doing this with all of their bundles. Makes it harder for those of us who like buying them for friends, but it's a good thing if it keeps certain individuals and web sites from buying up bundles just to resell the keys in bulk.

Though I do wonder how long it'll take for these people to bypass their system. They always do, don't they? ._.

I wrote a mail to Humble Bundle support and told them i want to buy a couple more bundles.
A day after that they had told me that they reset my purchase limit.

Tell them a good reason and thats it. Love their support. Fast, nice and easy.

It's an inconvenience for legitimate customers (as others have pointed out, many buy multiple bundles for friends/giveaways/etc) but intended to prevent abuse...

wait, isn't that the justification for DLC, too?

there was a big flaw with their system, paypal charge fee to the receiver (not the sender), and people were buying the bundle at 1 cent, like thousand time at the time, I did it too (before the BTA thing), not trying to hide myself (did not bought by thousand though), well that cost some money to them. Now there is a limit on paypal buyout, which make total sense specially if it cost something for them to process a 1 cent purchase with paypal.

There's definitively something wrong with their system. I have right now this issue (>_<)

Last night, I was going to buy a gift link from the current "Humble Weekly Sale: Kalypso" for my brother, but it didn't let let me: "Order cancelled. We have received too many purchase requests... blah, blah". I have tried again with no luck.

This doesn't make sense, the last time I bought from them was last Saturday (6 days ago), and I bought the same bundle (gift link) for a friend; and before that, I bought a gift link from the "Humble Weekly Sale: Paradox Games" (early in September) also for a friend; and before that I bought for myself the "Humble Deep Silver Bundle" in July 30th! (O_O)

I sent an e-mail to them last night, but the only reply I got was a "bot" message. Still waiting for a real answer right now. I'm really angry about this, I really wanted to gift this to my brother because he wanted Anna and Tropico 3... (-_-)

You must have a lot of friends..

You don't seem so generous.
Also you only have 3 "friends" on steam.

It's a simple way to lower abuse. Got it myself after buying a couple of bundles, in the end I directly bought with my Credit Card.
Mailed HumbleBundle but they will only answer after the deal is over ;-)

I have the same message. I never bought any bundle twice so far. Seems this is a new system and sees all previous bundles as bought at the same time.

I wanted to buy the current weekly for a friend, but I guess that's not happening :(
(I can only pay with PayPal, don't have any other method of paying)

MAN THAT SUCKS YOU CAN'T GET ALL THOSE GAMES YOU PAYED FULL PRICE FOR, OWAIT

If you used paypal, try to switch to google wallet, it's same as paypal, sall fees and, same using your credit/debit card.
