So I log in to find my self getting messaged.
This person tells me how he just bought a siege launcher off me for 73mill isk. Finding this odd I check my wallet to find 73mill isk had just been added.
He asks me for the money back, I tell him to partition it as it would be funny if we both got 73mill for the trouble, before we finish talking he leave the convo.
Five minuets later he mails me to tell me I am a scammer and he’s going to have me killed.
I tell him it must be a bug and to partition but he just tell me again how I am a scammer and he’s going to get me killed… nice man really
I decide to take a look my self… all my sales order for siege launchers in Armrr are set to 299,999k as there where 2 days ago, I look at others sales orders to find 1 for a siege launcher for 73mill isk, this sales order is not mine but I received the isk from the person that got the siege launcher does anyone know what the hell is going on.
Now I am happy to get free money but I don’t work all day IRL to come home to people calling me a scamming and saying they going to get me killed for something I have not done, I worked hard to make those siege launchers and sell them for a good price please ccp fix the dam game.

heh funny, the same thing happened to me. also with seige launchers. might have been cruise. and it was either in amarr or tash
anyways, i sent the guy back his 64mil cause i'm a nice person, and he was polite about it
also, selling seige launchers at 300k? now that's ripping people off. they cost 68k to build, and before exodus i was making like 10% margins on them
hi you got to put a bit of markup on... but 73mill is a bit over the top :)

sounds like a bit of a idiot for not checking the sell order closer if you ask me but im a bit confused you admit recieving the money ,this guys asked you for it back and you wont ? im sorry but dosent that make you as bad as the person who put the sell order up no wonder he wasnt happy  or did you give it back in which case good on you :)

i know you not aload to post convos with gm but i think what i will show you should be ok as it should be know to the players of eve :)
"It is possible that a buy order was created at the price of 73M but was matched to your order instead of the other one. When you create a sell order you are specifying a floor price. If someone offers more then the price you specify, you will sell him an item at that price."
that would also explain what the last poster talked about with buy orders coming in at differing cost to what they where made at.

two more replays from gm... not so good.
"As I said before it is possible that a buy order was created at the price of the other order but matched by yours. This does not need to be the result of a bug.
The buyer is ultimately responsible for ensuring that the price he is buying at is what he was expecting."
next one is jsut funny.
"This will be reported to the developers in order to determine whether this is a desired side effect but Im afraid it still doesnŠt classify as a bug even if it will be changed (which is undecided at this time)"
"desired side effect" CCP want us to ripe each other off 
well thxs you anyway mr GM.
