Issue with Bulk Editing - Buy It Now price / Lower By $ - auto populates at $0.99

[chadsgirl44]

For the past two days when I go to Bulk editing to lower my prices, it auto populates at $0.99 and will not let me go below this amount. We have been utilizing Bulk editing to lower our prices by $0.50 for several years. Please advise !

Oh...This is too easy!  Can't you guess?  Below .99 makes the fees go lower, too.  Why waste time and bandwidth for literally pennies?  You should want more, too.  Never sell to break even or at a loss.  You deserve to make money, too!

Having the same problem. Buyologist-3 your comment makes no sense

The price is not being lowered to $0.99. The price is being lowered by $0.99.

Say the seller has items listed at $10 and wants to reduce the price by $0.50 to $9.50 - they can't do this in bulk because the system is forcing a minimum reduction of $0.99 to $9.01.

To those running into this problem: is there an error message or does the field just replace what you type in with $0.99?

I tried duplicating the issue, but I got an error saying my listings weren't eligible for bulk price editing which is odd because I specifically chose a few non-variation listings so there shouldn't have been an error like that.

It doesn't give an error message, it just replaces .50 with .99

[chadsgirl44]

Yes exactly - It doesn't give an error message, it just replaces .50 with .99.

Hey elizabeth@ebay kyle@ebay devon@ebay - could you find out if this is an intended change (minimum price reduction of $0.99 in bulk edit) or if it's a tech error?

Hey @wastingtime101 we're not sure if this was intentional or an error either.  We've reached out to a couple of teams to get this sorted out, and we'll be sure to update you here with any info we receive!

Problem seems to be fixed for me, I was able to lower by .50 today

Hey @wastingtime101 we received a response from our developers last night that the issue was identified and being fixed shortly.  

@chadsgirl44 and @ephemeranirvana I'm glad to see that you two were able to reduce your prices properly this morning!

Thanks kyle@ebay - that was a really quick fix!
