If it continues to happen, post the aircraft ID and the steps involved before the aircraft reached the market, and whether or not other aircraft in the same batch of sales were affected.

Post by: Hal on January 19, 2010, 06:13:20 am: I found the reason for this 0 price. Its made by mass scraping script. When you scrap aircrafts that are at market, they stay at market and are offered by broker, but with 0 price. The script needs some changes or not allow him to scrap planes, that are not removed from market.

I scraped some planes in W1075 and they are now for 0 at market offered by Qatar Airways (SLA31).
