I have noticed this before but never worked out what was causing the problem
until now...

If you enter an item's dimensions manually, for example a manual that is
210 x 130 x 6, then it accepts that just fine. However, if you then change the
price of the item the x-dimension gets copied over the z-dimension so our example
manual ends up 210 x 130 x 210. This obviously means that anyone ordering the
item gets their postage worked out on a large box, even it it is for stickers!

Can this please be looked into?

Does this bug occur on the old AND new inventory pages? Or just one or the other?

It appears to be just the new version (v2). I would guess the SQL is screwed
up.
