lololololol, didn't even realise, sigh.
What's your biggest typo in your shop that's cost you? (Or maybe you realised quick enough to fix it?).
Guess who just sold two 50dubloon coins for 14k :D

I post mine on the snipe thread because that's what they are -- just not for me :(
It's that stupid 0 in the price field that jacks everyone up! I just select and erase it each time now. I type in the right number but the last digit gets stripped off.
I have had 4 that I remember clearly: 2 were gourmet foods (each off about 15K), 1 scrambled rainbow negg (4,500 instead of 45,000) and a 16K plushie for 1,600. *angry*

Haha yeah, that must be it, I've never had that problem before, and I've never entered an incorrect number without noticing, I normally just double click and enter the price, I musn't have noticed it didn't highlight it haha.
Unlucky for you, thankfully it wasn't 10 of them or something :D
I was just talking to the buyer also, they had no idea and don't even know what they're worth, just an impulse buy, some seriously dumb luck there haha.

Typically I sell only 1 item at a time if the price is over 5K because it isn't uncommon for some prices to fluctuate several thousand NPs in a short period of time. Each time I see a shopper buy all of an item I have stocked with more than 1 my heart sinks a little. I recently had an item that always sold around 9K that over-night went to 20K and stayed there a couple weeks.
LOL! The same thing happened to me with the 16K plushie -- an impulse buy @ 1,600. The buyer was a friend and I mailed her to let her know what she had. I was glad it was her, it didn't sting so badly.

Heh, I guess that's part of having a shop. I've done that quite a few times. But I lost more than you. It was all paintbrushes, around 5 quantity in total. I didn't realize that I price it 9.9k instead of 99k. Oh well.
