So, yeah, doublecheck that per cent reduction versus dollar reduction before you Create Sale. I doubt the so-called Feedback Specialists at ebay would take pity on me and remove 40 Negative Feedbacks over a week-long period from the same kind of mistake.
Good point to reinforce about checking the percent vs dollar amount, I can see how one could make that error if in autopilot mode. I've seen quite a few disasters having worked in ecommerce, usually involving rebate/discount fields and someone assuming they should enter the intended sale price into that field. It can be a bit of a minefield for dropshippers as well as I've seen instances where a distributor goofs on their rebates or makes an unannounced changed to the mapping of pricing related data fields resulting in websites across the country publishing price errors. My hat goes off to the customer service people who end up having to deal with and clean up the aftermath as dealing with price errors can be toxic.
Thankfully I've only had a few rare instances of a pricing error on ebay, typically a result of the sell similar feature and the pricing field not fully updating before submitting the listing. I find that having email open while listing a batch of listings helps as you can do a quick bulk double check before the site starts indexing the listing.
