AH question -- is 48 hour posting broken?

[LochnarITB]

Hi,

I usually post items for 48 hours so that I can split my AH activities over two days. Since Friday, although it looks like I'm posting for 48, the auctions expire in 24 hours. Is this a bug in the latest patch? Auctioneer hasn't changed.

Thanks,

--Pete

A search of the official forums finds a few people posting the same issue. I have posted several items, always 48 hours, but don't generally check back until after that period anyway so I wouldn't notice. The first poster I found was like you, listing a ton of auctions, so it becomes obvious. Of course, the first blue reaction was to blame an addon but the player's testing seems to refute that. The other point made was that it is costing a lot of gold. The 48 hour deposit is taken but items sent back in 24 means paying double what should be, easily hundreds of gold for big time AH players.:(
