You can describe your interpretation all you want, but the English used (excess purchase) is able to be interpreted in either way (the excess over the allowed about or a singular purchase that went over the allowed amount). There is no real way to know which is accurate in this situation unless the OP or someone who works there answers the question.



Is there a problem with me explaining my interpretation? That's all I ever said I was doing. A lot of people were only talking about the excess basically having to be the entire order, so I put in my 2 cents. I never said it was the only possibility.

Edit: I went back to double check that I hadn't replied more times than I realized or something. Nope, 3 whole comments explaining how I thought it might work out. That's if you count the first one where I honestly didn't understand how the author came to the conclusion they should input another $10k.
