How come the Markets BTC value is always below the real amount.

I have the right amount of coins in my wallet for the order I want to do but every market I check the BTC value is 295 but google says the value is 300.

Is there a time delay ie it will change eventually or is it worth just buying some more coins to make it level?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Their rates data will only be updated every x number of hours to ensure that the prices of products don't change when you're browsing. Different exchanges also offer various rates, their rates data will be collected from a third party source.

Google? What's the actual source? Different exchanges will differ in the price. Depends on where the market is pulling it from. They can also deflate the value. Who knows.

They can essentially hedge without notifying you, if they are lucky it will go up and they will get to keep the differences, as minute as they might be, it all adds up.

Like those microsecond computer stock trading machines, and the stealing a ΒΌ of a penny off every bank transaction - what was that "Hackers" ?

I've noticed it on dream market before and there comes a time in the day where they'll sync up. I like to take advantage of it when the markets price is higher than the actual value.
