				| And do not use financial punctuations when entering the bid amount. The only non numeric character allowed is a decimal point. The bid amount will always be in the currency stated on the eBay item page. 
 $1,720.50 - no
 1720.50 - yes

				| Thanks Mario. Just item number tried again. Same result.
 After first time getting the error, I reset my settings to uk. If that makes a difference. Didn’t have any issues last time I used Gixen.
 Anything else I can try?
