Re: [Rails-devel] 1856 SR escrow reporting

[Chris S. <chr...@gm...>]

Well, the problem is that it says "the price paid ($325)" when in fact the
price that was paid is $65 and the $325 figure is the total escrow including
the price paid now and the price paid for previous share purchases.  The
current wording ascribes the entire escrow as the "price paid" for one
share.
