[cazbaz01903]

Hi, I have a lady wishing to bid on my item, she just e mailed saying the price says $88 but on my post it says lowest bid $120? I'm not sure what is going on

Is she perhaps looking at the doll in US dollars on the ebay.com site?

Ask her where she is seeing a price of $88 as this amount does not appear anywhere on the listing.

I would say she is seeing the $88 on her watch page. There has been a recent glitch where the amounts showing on the watch page are showing in US dollars (even though they say AU$ before the figure). It has nothing to do whether the buyer is on the .au site or the .com site (in fact, if she went to the .com site, the figure would show differently again as it would convert to USD from $88). It has been catching a lot of people off guard. There are some threads about it on the buyers forum.

Ask your buyer if she is seeing that amount on her watch list. If she is, explain that there has been a recent glitch that you have no control over. Direct her to the buyers forum. I would also advise her to check other items on her watch list because some of those figures might be out too. It doesn't happen to all of them. Only one on mine was showing at a different rate to the listing, others have had several.

Yes, I was going to say the same.

She is probably seeing it on the watch list which currently has a glitch.

OP, tell the buyer there is an eBay fault at the moment and items in the watch list appears with a US$ conversion but shows as AU$.

Edit - Put it in my watch list and it comes up as $88.63
