I won an auction for a UA/LH RT Chicago-Moscow ticket almost three weeks ago--$661 including taxes (a better fare than I could find anywhere else). SkyAuction made a reservation for my originally requested travel dates after 6 days. The email stated that changes to the return flight would be $150. After receiving this first itinerary, I requested different travel dates because my plans had changed. I didn't receive any reply from SkyAuction for a week, so I sent two emails over the next two days asking about the status of my reservation. I was then sent a FedEx delivery notification by email telling me my ticket had been issued and was being sent to me. I wasn't sent an email telling me of the new itinerary and asking for my confirmation though. The ticket was just issued and sent to me, and my credit card was charged. I went to SOFIA and found the new itinerary since no one sent me the itinerary by email. The return flight wasn't acceptable so I immediately sent SkyAuction an email telling them the return flight wouldn't work out and I needed them to change it. I was sent an email telling me that "per SkyAuction's contract with the airline I am allowed one free change to the return flight." I sent back an email asking if the change to the return flight would be free or if it would cost $150 like I was informed in an earlier email. I was sent another email telling me that one change to the return flight would be free, not $150. So I accepted the ticket. I haven't changed the return flight yet because I'd like to wait until I'm sure when I want to return. Has anyone else tried to change their UA/LH SkyAuction return flight once their ticket had been issued? Did you indeed get one free change or did it cost you $150?

Thanks.
