Set price currency per listing

Open ghost opened this issue 9 years ago • 4 comments

Listing configuration doesn't inform how price is set.

If I set a price in USD, will it stay in USD or will it be converted to BTC and vary its price in USD according to market price?

Shouldn't both these options be available?

The price set in the listing will always be the price.

If the price is set in a fiat currency, it will be the converted to BTC at the time of purchase.

ie: if you set a listing to be $100 USD, when that item is purchased the equivalent amount of BTC will be paid, based on the conversion rate at that time.

This information should be displayed on edit listing page. User should also be able to set his listing prices in a currency different from the OB currency in settings (without having to change his OB currency in settings).

FWIW, in v2 this is the case - you are able to specify the currency when creating / editing a listing.

I believe the API allows setting the currency per listing, so it would be possible to change the v1 client to do that.
