Hello, I'm selling a bunch of rocket launchers, one person bought 6 and I received 1,300,000 each and another person bought 6 and I received 1,488,000 each.

I have them listed at 1,300,000 each, so why did I get more from the other person?

Is it something to do with taxes? Or maybe the other person was in the same corp so I got extra?

Just trying to find out :)

As above, it's due to people trying to buy from an order thats higher priced than yours, in which case you get the sale at that price.
Same goes for sell orders, saw some poor sap selling his plex for 548k instead of 548m cause he missed 3 zeoes, and spammed away the warning that he was selling too low ;)
