I'm trying to buy some ladies stretch trousers. One listing has from £9.99 - £15.99.
As soon as you make the selection of size, colour etc the price jumps to the higher price or £15.99.
No combination of choices offers £9.99.
How is this allowed?

what is the item number? there will be one listing in there that creates a price of £9.99.
Just might be tricky to find it

This kind of thing has been going on for as long as I can remember.
You see this kind of thing where they are selling phones for £100, but have an option for a charger on the same listing at £9.99.
You can report it, but don't hold your breath.

Hi,
the Seller may have listed on a variation listing advert where they had only one or a few item/s in the size you are looking for, and the size has been sold but not restocked yet. It happens, you could message the Seller to see if they are restocking your size.

Presuming I've found the correct listing.
99% of the listings are set at £15.99.
The following option selection is £9.99
- Grey / 2 Pack Bootcut Elasticated Comfort Fit Big
- UK 8
- 27" Inch Short Inside Leg
Its a cheeky way of tricking the system to present your listing higher up in the list view if you stack by price. But technically - there is nothing wrong. It is factually correct that the options on that listing are £9.99 to £15.99

It's listing number.

If there is I can't find it.

yeah - it was the same listing.
There is, from what I can tell 1 listing variation at £9.99 as above.
its annoying - but little ebay could do. this is better than most I've seen as at least it is a set of leggings that is the £9.99 option - it will just be one of the least popular options they sell.

I try to buy cheap cardboard boxes but its impossible to find the cheapest due to multi item listings.
If I want to buy 25 off boxes 9"*6"*6" I have to tediously go through each search item and input requirements then look at price.

I don't know if anyone is any cheaper, but Globe Packaging (sells on here) is quite reasonable. And they do 9x6x6 as I bought some two days ago.
