Depending on the demande for that runes, it may gives you more or less gold for it. it is not bugged.

but one rune shouldnt take the price from 700g to 25g.and the price he was selling for didnt change at all.

25g is the minimum a trader will pay for a rune. You happened to catch the trader when he wanted to buy 1, and so you got a good price for it, but after that one he didn't want more so the price went down to minimum. It's not bugged, but a somewhat flawed buy/sell system.

also consider that it may have been bad luck. While you are selling the 1st rune, another 20 random ppl in the american server sell the same rune.

For the time you request a quote for the 2nd the price its at minimum.

As offer/demand values vary in hole server at the same time.

Yep, as people have said its just because of supply and demand, although it can really suck when sometimes you get lucky, get a gold armor drop, salvage a superior rune, only to find the trader is offering a measly 25g for it.
