Input error?

Question:

Hello All, Though I would be a wise guy and bought 40 listings in eBay for a nickel each, didn’t input anything but a couple of abstract letters and numbers, so that I could come back later and enter more sales. So I just went and tried to do just that, revise one of my blank auction sale pages.  I changed the category just fine, entered in a new description in html from FrontPage complete with pics, but then when I went to revise the price from $.01 to $750 the page kept bouncing to:     "Input Error     There was an error in your input. Please go back and ensure that all fields are properly filled in." I am very familiar with the process, I didn’t leave anything required fields blank, never got this error message before.  I go back and check, and everything is correct, and I try again, same result.  So I save the sale with all the new info and I try and go back in all over again and revise the price, same result. Next I try and revise another one of my blank auction sale pages, same result.  What gives?  I also tried to revise a sale page that was posted before the nickel sale, again, same error message.  Can anyone shed some light on this? Best Regards, Kramer

I just revise a price upward from $99 to $149 and it took with no problem and no fee. I don’t know if it’s a factor, but next time start at a high price vs. 1 cent if for no other reason than avoiding lookers. May have a cookie problem.    May want to try clearing cookies & cache.

Thanks mj! After reading your reply, I use Mozilla, so I tried to change the price using IE and same problem but different error message.  I cleared my IE cache and the change went through.  So then I cleared my Mozilla cache and the change also went through. Best Regards, Kramer
