Am I missing something? Alphabay showing incorrect BTC to USD conversion

Hi all,

So I'm trying to complete an order on Alphabay valued at $227. I currently have .3470 btc which at the moment of typing this is ~$230 and when I enter my pin to complete the purchase it says error insufficient balance. Then when I click on balance it says I really only have $220 when I clearly have .3470 btc (~$230). What gives?

If you don't like the price of bitcoin, just wait a minute as mark twain might say. It's crazy volatile lately. Hard on the vendors who can take a hit (or make a mozza...). Check again in a few hours. You might get two.

The BTC price is highly volatile - as of now, BTC-e shows $634, Preev shows $650, Bitfinex $652, and AB $641 (kinda in the middle).

I think each market has its own value
