ranga_muffin Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I just made such a silly! I had a zed codestone and I put it in my shop for 42000. Or so I thought!! I left off the last zero and now someone's bought it :( at least it's 'only' 40k and not like 100k, but such a silly mistake...On a different note, I hope better than you updates this week. I love the weekly challenge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlyle Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Sorry to hear about your loss... Wherever your Zed Codestone may be, I hope it is in a better place now. :P I've fallen prey to this mistake. I lost around 9k due to missing a zero as well, which was a LOT to me at the time (was no good at saving Neopoints). ranga_muffin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erato_ Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Been there, done that. I can't remember what it was but I think it was around 25k :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nousha Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 It has happened to me too, once. I don't remember the exact amount but it seemed a lot to me :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
010_pipsy_010 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Sorry to hear about that. I have a sneaking suspicion that this has happened to most Neopians at some time, even though they would never admit it! I know I've done this at least once. I guess it's all part of learning to check before you click lol :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranga_muffin Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 yeah you're probably right. thanks guys. It's so frustrating as I usually do check. but oh well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angeló Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 it happens to almost everyone , including me - several times hehe - just try to be careful :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fullonparanoid Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Oh, the dreaded 'dropped zero'...I have done that SO MANY TIMES. I have actually had users buy the item then contact me to see if I meant to sell at that price. Once, someone just sent the item back to me before I even knew it had been purchased (granted, they 'kinda' knew me from the boards...but still, it was nice). So, yah, it has probably happened to everyone who sells from their User Shop. That does not make it any less frustrating though! Good luck with your sales and hopefully you will make up the nps quickly. Cheers! :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotr_rox Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Sorry for your loss :( ... It has happened to me numerous times. Just a few weeks ago it happened to me, lost around 30k on an item. It's very upsetting, but at least you know you probably made another neopians day!! :) Hope you're able to make up for it somehow! rntracy1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaki Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I'm not good at math, but I am pretty good at keeping my prices where they should be. I count my zeros as I type them, and make sure the key actually registers xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x_emrys_x Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 I'm sure I've done this too but I can't think of any examples. I also make the opposite mistake and add an extra zero! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
