| I bought 50 of these at $14.44 each US dollar. Lando Calrissian, Old (Cape with
Collar) Why are they showing in the price guide sold at $17.66. It was not Euro.
All the figs that I bought in that order have the wrong sold price. I know what
I paid and the guide seems wrong.

A 22.3% difference… looks like VAT (and some, or minus some).
You said “not Euro,” but still from EU, no?
If seller is VAT-registered, their prices show VAT in the PG, whether the VAT
was collected or not (and it’s not collected for non-EU buyers).
(Works for UK too.)

Yeah, seems bogus inserting the projected base price which includes VAT for the
EU store, and not the actual sold price as is presented.

| I agree it should be what the buyer paid no matter all the other stuff. If they
were $17.66 I would not of bought them so now it appears I paid that even though
I did not. It may lead others to think they are selling for more.

| Hi George
When I look at the price guide it shows 50 sold @ €14.12
maybe it shows the higher price for buyers outside the EU ?

Possibly, but then...
What is the value of the feature to members that directly affect the data input,
if they are subsequently offered bogus numbers to work with? I think is the more
salient point.
It's an interesting revelation, for me in any case.

| But what when someone else has 50 to sell and thinks they sold for an inflated
price and it just drives the price up for no other reason than a glitch in the
system.

That too, as well as other considerations.

That would be a refreshing change.
Niek.

I think this is a good read of the problem:
https://www.bricklink.com/messageThread.asp?ID=290050
It is a tough problem, I suggested adding an indicator to PG sold items when
it was with/without VAT.
Seems they turned back the change I started that discussion for.

But your seems a strange case, as since that post it was not reverted back, just
checked a couple of recent orders:

USA, New Jersey
France, Nouvelle-Aquitaine
Ireland, Kerry
Canada, Alberta
Spain, Comunidad Valenciana
