Why would anyone do that? ITA's price depends on the exchange rates they have loaded, versus whatever agent has loaded. For me, ITA's price is a reference, and as long as I'm within a few percent, I'm happy. Unless someone uses ITA's system, you cannot guarantee the same price.

Did you check whether ITA's currency rates were up to date? If not, that could explain the $50 ...

In my case, I'm just thankful that ITA is available and for free ... the $50 bucks is nothing when they've helped me save $200 to $500 on trips from Europe to the US.
