    it's only confusing because...

    ...I have no idea what the point of this sale is actually. Maybe it's an inside joke.

    It has to be a goof because of the $4 V4 items. Probably what happened is V4 items were automatically placed at $4 and calculated the %off

    Well, since these items were less that $4 to begin with, the math errored and hence the -Infinity%

    These items were probably not meant to be in the sale :)

    Should be sorted out now,  Refresh your store page and you are good to go.

    Did you do a hard refresh on the page, as both the remarked on ones are fine for me

     

    Oh whoops,  it's come back,   tis obviously a very persistant bug.

    Probably Division by Zero. That breaks pretty much every calculation... wink

    Although it shows a price on the store page it is free when you get to the checkout,  I have just bought the one I didn't already have.

    Seems to be back to normal (plain old 'Free') when I looked at them just now.

    But I'm wondering... what will happen if somebody's already bought one of the items at the '--Infinity%' discounted price ?

    Will they get an infinite refund ? ;o)

    they might get caught in an infinite loop caused by a malfunctioning mobius strip.

    Clearly the algorithm is messed up. Application of a negative infinity discount shouldn't raise the price to a mere $4.  Seems like I should jump on to this bargain before they correct it!
