I have bought a rainbow parasol for about 65-66m. I then wanted to sell it In GE, so I put in a pricetag of 68m and clicked “sell”. I INSTANTLY ONLY GOT 45M! Why??!!!!??! How can GE sell my item for UNDER the Price I put in there?! I lost 22m+!

I think you didn’t hit enter. Current interface doesn’t actually sends the update every numeric change. Because if it does, it would send 0, 6, 68, 680, 6800, 68000, 680000, ... , 68000000.
So i think it was trying to sell with the default GE price for you.

So I guess it only update the list price change on enter key.
It would be better if they just take the current number on the interface on posting the trade.
We are selling to willing buyers at the current fair market price so that we may survive.
My loss is your gain.

Current games: Runescape GE, Mobile Legends, osu!

you never pressed enter, so it went into the ge at face value 20,318,536 and sold to the person who had the highest buy offer sitting there.

Pretty sure this is what happened. Been there done that few times myself. Hurts a bit when you accidentally "dump" something and lose ~200m. Usually happens when on mobile and drunk
