Can someone clearly explain what the subtotal field of the Receipt resource is?

Also what is the difference between grandtotal and total_price? my guess is:

total_price = aggregated total price of listings
grandtotal = total amount the user has to pay after discounts, taxes and shipping are factored in

is that correct?

Great question.  I talked to my colleague David Schott and he gave me these answers:
  • total_price is the sum of the individual listings' (price * quantity).  Note that this does not include tax or shipping costs.
  • subtotal is total_price minus the coupon discounts.  Again that this does not include tax or shipping costs.
  • grandtotal is total price - coupon discount + shipping cost + tax cost.
I'm sorry the documentation isn't very helpful with this.  I'll get that updated this week.
