Basket total WTF
-
Buying some car cleaning stuff online. After adding some stuff to the basket, the total in the corner shows (correctly) as:
£50.00 exactly.
Clicking View Basket unsurprisingly goes to a page which shows the contents of the basket. But now the total in the corner is:
£50.40.
The total at the bottom of the basket page shows the correct total, just with the VAT separate.
So it's just one page which has 40p added to the total for no apparent reason
-
That's one hell of a rounding error...
-
@loopback0 were all 6 items in quantity of one, or did you buy several items of same kind and it just happens that total number of items is 40?
-
@Gąska 4 single items, the remaining 2 were the same thing.
Actually...
-
@loopback0 it's still possible that it was just some cosmic rays messing up RAM on server or your PC... Is it reproducible?
-
@Gąska Which is more likely: Rounding error in currency handling, OR cosmic rays?
-
£0.40 discount for ordering two of that item. That explains the £0.40, although not why the pre-discount is shown only on that one part of one page.
-
@Gąska Well I do keep my cosmic rays near the computer...
-
@loopback0 They're either cosmic or your rays. Can't have it both ways.
-
Is it a cart or a basket? It seems the designers couldn't make up their mind.
-
@Choonster that looks like a plastic bucket for children.

@loopback0 said in Basket total WTF:
my cosmic rays

@Jaloopa I feel angry and just don't understand why...
-
@DogsB Are you angry that I am such a paint.net novice? Or that so many people apparently love this Ray guy?

It's definitely the ray guy. I don't know him but if I ever meet him I feel that punching him would be the right thing to do.
