Help with variation posting

This is my first time using variations, and I am struggling a bit. I was wondering why I had not sold anything (we all wonder, right?) and noticed that when I add to shopping cart, it gives me an error.

"Oops, something went wrong, 

The item you've selected was not added to your cart."

Any suggestions?

Thanks for looking and your time!

I was able to add an item from that listing into my cart.

You can't add your own listing to your shopping cart- were you logged into a different account when you got the error?

@frontroguy, if you tried to add one to your cart using this account, then that would be the problem. You can't buy your own items.

I tried adding 2 and then 3 items to my cart, and it worked fine. It appeared to be calculating discounts correctly as well. 

You should make sure that you can ship 3 to anywhere in the USA for less than $7.50 with media mail, so you won't lose money (assuming that you just want to break even, and not account for the cost of the goods sold).

Ahhhhhhh! Never thought about it being on my own account!

thanks!

(yep, I can do the shipping - it is media mail)
