Feedback welcome

seller actually received $150/1.15 = $130.4 but whatever it's one key.

150 * 0.85 = 127.5... ?

15% of 150 is 22.5

the way it works on scm is sellers price +15% of that number. So the total is (seller receives)*1.15 = (buyer pays) therefor you can find out what seller receives by (buyer pays)/1.15.

I get you. I usually just do buyer pays -15% and the difference really isn't big enough to quibble about. Your way is technically more accurate though, I think I'll do that in future.

Kinda amazed no-one has pointed this out before? Lol

Yeah, I wasn't saying it really caused a problem here (just 1 key). On $300-$400 sales it starts to be somewhat important. The use of the incorrect (seller pays)*.85 method just kind of annoys me.

I do point it out when I see it but I'm only one person.

Yeah, rightfully so, I just didn't think about it enough, but you're 100% correct. Like I said... no idea how no-one else has noticed or pointed that out in months of suggesting. D:

I'll point it out too in future, doesn't make a huge difference most of the time but it could with higher sales for sure.

I think both ways are accurate enough to display a SCM transaction. I personally dont use SCM purchases as main proof for unusuals themselves (only for minis on pro ks stuff) and thus generally stay neutral when the suggestion consists of only a SCM transaction

It's seller = max(buyer - max(buyer * 0.05, 0.01) - max(buyer * 0.1, 0.01), 0.01)

Seller always receives at least 1 cent, both taxes are always at least 1 cent each.

i believe you meant to write it: buyer = seller+max(seller*.05, 0.01)+max(seller*.1,0.01) ~ buyer = seller*1.15 for larger numbers

since the way you wrote it before would be seller = buyer-(buyer*.15) for any larger numbers which would be seller = buyer*.85 which is clearly not correct as demonstrated by the screenshot. Nobody is really making minis for <$1 items though (where the 1+1 penny minimum tax amount actually would come into play)
