The most hilarious pricing issues on the UA website come when breaking married segments using multi-city.
Yep. I have seen this a number of times as well.

And when you "click on the calendar" on your desired date(s) the actual available lowest fare in almost all cases will be lower!

For the heck of it, do a 1 day search starting on 9/1. 9/4 calendar date shows $542. Click on the date and you can get a $325 fare!

Checked out your results....hopefully you checked out mine. It appears that the misinformation may be associated with close in dates.
