Perhaps I'm just confused, but this seems a bit odd.

Bottom of the screen lists "open sell orders". The top line is: "L$264 / US$1, 10 sellers at this rate, $588862 total remaining."

However, if I type "1" in the "number of US dollars" box at the top, the "number of Linden dollars" box is set to 184. Why doesn't it take the deal listed at the top of the sell orders page, so that the number of Lindens would be 264? L$184 / US$1 is worse than even the "today's low" rate listed in the adjacent box. Unless they're charging a big commission..

You pay a flat $0.30 fee on all purchases, so your $1 is actually buying $0.70 worth of currency

0.70 * 264 = L$184.8

(I guess it rounds down the .8)
