Bob Craig. Where do you get bid/ask price feeds that you can be sure come from a specific exchange. It looks to me like you may have identified another soruce of friction in the system where brokers can make a few tinys by selling you options from one exchange and buying they at a slightly lower price at another exchange.

Question? I see from the 9/17/99 close prices at CBOE web site there are three listings for Jan 2001 QCOM 130's:
ZLU AF-E bid/ask= 84/85
ZLU AF-A bid/ask= 81 7/8 / 83 7/8
ZLU AF-P bid/ask= 83 5/8 / 85 1/8
What exactly are the suffexes on these option symbols. Do the relate to the exchange. Does one include the LWIN spin off? I don't like musical chairs and "now-you-see-it & now-you-don't" played with my securities. As I said earlier, there was no spin iff and no split. Thus, just what is the justification for changing symbols here--people don't go to this much trouble for no reason.
