Customer offers an item to my vendor --> 30 days remaining on counter
I buy the item 3 days after offered --> at 27 days remaining on counter
Item goes to stockroom --> 57 days remaining on counter
This happen to anyone else?

LOL! Same was happening to me last night. I was buying offers, pulling some stock to relist at new prices, relisting a few rollovers, and I was getting all kinds of weird days on counter. On stock I withdrew especially. Some said 36 days, some said 57, some 54... I sure the heck couldn't figure out the relationships.

It looks like the solution for the 7 day timer in the stockroom was to just add 30 days to it when it goes in there. *shrug*

More like:
QA: Its broke
Developer: It works on the development server
QA: I don't give a [censored] it doesn't work on any other server
Developer: Screw it I'll have it add another 30 days and that will shut everyone up about it.
QA: Whatever.

As long as it's 30ish+ I'm not gonna worry about it.
It's the ones that were 7 that made me pull my hair out.
