Why can't I lower my "starting at" price for one of my gigs?

[wryderswriting]

The minimum price seems to be 40 dollars (a writing gig), but for another one of my gigs the minimum is 5 (a proofreading and editing gig)! I don't want my minimum to be 40. While yes, I can adjust word count to compensate for work and time, I would like my lowest possible price to be what's front and center. Is there a way I can fix this?

Hey! 

Which sub-category is the gig in exactly? Perhaps ghostwriting (or something else) now has that limit I guess? If that's the minimum, than that's the minimum, I don't think you can do anything to be honest. Keep a reasonable word count for the first package (and the rest) to avoid burning out and do your best. 

(I did take a look and your pricing looked a tad wonky at a first glance, the more words you get the cheaper it gets (per 1000 words / etc.) which might not work out for the best.

I personally think it's easiest to keep the pricing a bit easier to track (and more far on you, too.)

I do appreciate the advice, my friend, I will take that to heart!
