Two Bulk Edit Errors

I use bulk edit when I have multiples of the same item listed at Buy It Now to make 1 of these an auction.  Here are two problems when I have all the items checked and select Bulk edit -> Item price and click on the $ field to enter the price.

 

Error 1:  A drop down list of suggested entries contains these choices:  1040-sr, 1040, schedule se, schedule 1, schedule c, and schedule 2.  I am trying to list items, not file a tax return.  Also this is a currency field, not a text field.

 

Error 2:  I enter $.25.  However the item price gets set to $.99.  I have to go to each item and change $.99 to $.25

Is it possible for you to show a screenshot of error 1?

Sorry, I don't know how to get a screenshot of this.  When I'm in Bulk edit -> Starting price a pop up appears with 3 radio buttons:  Lower by, Increase by, and Change to.  When I select the Change to radio button an entry field with a $ sign appears.  When I click on this entry field, the drop down with the IRS form suggestions appears.  However if I try to Copy/Paste or Ctrl-P to print this drop down vanishes.

 

If anyone knows how I can get a screenshot, please let me know.  I've always wondered how others do this.

On a Windows System (Win10 or Win11)

Read the info plus click on the link at the bottom for more tricks.

 

Getting a screenshot of a drop down is tricky, the Windows snip function has a delay feature where you can delay the snip so that you have time to engage the screen grab after you have clicked on the dropdown. It takes a few tries to get the hang of that function but once you do it's reasonably easy.

Still getting these 2 errors when I do a bulk edit on multiple auctions.  Most annoying is Error 2 as when I enter a starting price of $.25 the item starting price gets set to $.99.  Today I had to delete $.99 and enter $.25 on over 150 auctions while using the bulk editor.  It should NOT take over a month to fix an eBay introduced price error.
