I listed an item, a camera with lenses and some accessories.I was very careful to change the buy it now price and set the minimum offer price. I remembered noticing that the recommended price probably didn’t include included any of the lenses (which cost more than a camera)After I listed it, I reviewed the listing to ensure accuracy. Instead of the price that I entered the buy it now price was the recommended price.I immediately went to edit because I would lose a lot of money. When I tried to submit the change, I received an error… in less than 90 seconds since I listed it for the first time, somebody immediately bought it.I canceled the listing because I’m not going to sell it at that. I messaged the seller to explain that there had been a pricing glitch. they seemed OK with it and told me just to cancel it.I spoke with eBay and explained what happened. The customer service person seemed to insist that I entered the price wrong. I tried to explain again that it was a glitch. he finally seemed to understand, and I told him I didn’t want to be penalized for it. He ensured that I wouldn’t be.Today I looked, and there was a strike against me plus they charged me $.40. Obviously I don’t care about the dimes, but I do care about the penalty Has anybody else had this happen?
