Ok someone brought this up some time ago & guess what they finally fixed it. I believe most of us use the 'Buy Price' option. In the past, when someone bids at the 'Buy' price & the auctions ends immediately but the end price (click of the CLOSED link) will state your start price.
Confusing...yes especially if you are new to Yahoo. Take for example, you have a BLUE BALL for sale at $2.00 with a buy price of $4.00. Bidder comes in and bids at $4.00 cos he doesn't want to wait. Go to your Closed list & guess what, you will find that the BLUE BALL sold at $2. You have to go to the advanced bid to see it priced at $4.00.
Many new bidders get a notice from Yahoo that states they won the BLUE BALL at $2. Well they fixed it. If you bid the buy price, it will state in the final notice you won it at the BUY PRICE.
They just did it a few days ago so hey who says Yahoo doesn't listen. Any Yahoo vets noticed this too.
