---- Adjusted order of title tags - rankings tanked

I had an experience similar to lightguy's. I changed a title tag to incorporate a price with a $ sign, and overnight dropped from #3 to about #15 for the most important targeted KW phrase. I changed the description tag at the same time, but that really should have been an improvement, especially since the changes fixed a spelling typo in a keyword.

I've put the title back, if that doesn't fix things on the next crawl I'll reset the decription too. Reports of repetitive tweaks being penalized are scary... although that sure makes sense.
