You need to go back into the button code and make sure there is no typo in the price and that it is correctly formatted, like correct currency sign. For example, $12.99 as opposed to 12,00. You can go to seller preferences and click manage buttons to edit your button.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
