Are you sure it wasn't the buy/sell difference that SR uses? I know that when I hedged, the buy/sell difference was quite a bit. So much so that I have discovered that hedging (while in theory a good idea) does not work well for me. For example if i hedged something that I put up for 50 bucks and the buyer clicked received, I would only get about 48 bucks because of the way hedging works (the bitcoin didn't move a cent). Now, if the bitcoin drops like a rock like it has been known to do, well, thats when hedging will save your rear end. I know when I first hedged, I had SR explain why there was a difference and it was explained to me like any forex type deal, Or mt. gox/trade hill transaction. you always have a buy and a sell price. When Its hedged I guess there is a hedge/non hedged price. To me, I will risk the volitility of the bitcoin market rather than hedge. I consider it expensive insurance, lol. Its still great that it's available, I just wish it was a little cheaper and had the ability to chose which products you want to hedge rather than hedge everything or not...
