I found out something interesting, a few days ago i set up a shop and set an item for 4 silver. When i checked later on i received 4 copper. I figured i messed up and put the price in the wrong box. Yesterday i set up my store and put 5 items on sale for various silver and i was very careful to not make the same mistake. Within 5 minutes 3 items sold for only coppers, but the other 2 were still listed as silvers. I was like, what the heck is going on. After an hour of fuming A thought hit me. Earlier in the week i had hurt my arm and was trying to minimize mouse use. So when i selected an item and the price box came up, i hit the "tab" button several times and got the cursor to cycle to the "silver" box. I then put the price in, which showed in the silver box. I did not use "tab" for all the items and i did not double check once the store was open. Im thinking that using "tab" doesnt change the denomination in the game code even though it chyanges on the interface. I will test my theory tonight but that might be what is happening to people.

I don't think this is the cause, if this is true then theoretically we could list prices as coppers and actually sell as golds. :p

no because the value send to the server is important, not the bugged one at the client site.

Wow you all have good points on this... Though I might not be one to agree with the majority =D.

I've alway found to believe the unexpected. Not believing in something that dosn't sound true just because it wouldn't seem dosn't give reason to not.

Believe the unbelieved and expect the unexpected =D.

Think about his point of view. None of you thought in his shoes. <----Not literally but you get my point.
