I ran into this problem a couple weeks ago when I listed my coin in the B/S/T section as an Auction, I set the price, but when I click submit for the listing, the site switch my price to $-0.01.... I tried to Edit the price and submit again but then it said there's no change to be save/update.... I ended up have to End those listing. I thought it was a small temporary glitch. Over the weekend, I listed those auctions again and made sure to change the price accordingly. Everything seemed to work fine; however, to my amazement, one listing still got caught in this glitch http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...ctionID=6540 This time, a few members bidding on the listing already. Now, what should I do? I also hope that someone in the admin will fix this problem soon. |

Definitely send a separate note to Admin.
Regarding the in-process auction, you were very clear about the $85 start price, so maybe contact the bidders to explain and end the auction?
Or, can you bid on your own auction? In this case alone, I'd support that and you could just bid $84.99 and let it play out from there.

We're looking at it now. Just to be safe, I place an $85 bid for you.

I also had no trouble changing the starting bid value to $85.
This is a bit weird, to be honest. Two submissions in which the submitted value is changed to -0,01 and that we cannot reproduce... Do you have any form filling browser add-on that could cause this?

I just use Firefox browser as always.... let me see if I can replicate it and I'll capture/print screen to show each steps.

That's weird.... I just listed 1 coin in pretty much the same approach w/o any trouble..... ?

One thing I was able to replicate is: try to change the starting price and when I click the Save button, the page refreshed with this note: "Nothing to Save" in green-bold letter.

Once the auction is started, only admins can change the opening bid value (for auctions, Buy It Now items are different), regardless of what you do. So that was not a glitch, it's how it was designed to work. The only thing you can edit for an auction is the description.

I thought you can not change the starting price once someone bid on it.
In the case above, within about 1 minute after listing the auction, no one had bid on it yet, I tried to adjust the price, it work fine for the first two try then on the 3rd, it said "Nothing to Save" in green letter, not the usual warning in red letter that preventing certain tasks.
