Hey all...was just Wondering if anyone has this problem. Recently deposited some BC in my SR account, made a.couple of purchases, should have drained my accountbut it says there are still .6 plus BC in my aaccount that shouldn't be there. Weird. Its been a few days now and no change. ??????

It's probably the slight change in the value of BTC between you funding your account and buying things. When I paid for my vendor account I ended up with 0.009999 leftover despite having originally only had the exact right amount of BTC.

No. That's not it. I only deposited 1.2 BC and spent over 1.1.
No other deposits other than my own show in my account history.

I had a transaction cancelled and ended up with 0.2 BTC less than what I'd paid (hedged transaction). Initially, I thought this was down to fluctuations in the BTC exchange rate but no I checked the exchange rate chart over the period the transaction had been placed and then cancelled - and it was flat. I later heard that SR charges 4% for hedged transactions which is not refundable even if the transaction is cancelled, so I guess that's where I made my loss. Thing is that the vendor cancelled because I'd selected the wrong postage option, however they didn't have any instructions on their listing about what kind of postage I should use. Shit, if they had have just messaged me telling me that I didn't choose the right postage option and they needed a little more money to cover their postage expenses (it wasn't a lot), I would have just sent it to them and then they wouldn't have had to cancel the transaction. Not a big issue, but no one likes to lose $20.
