It must be a currency setup issue.
What is the main currency you set in the configuration ?
Could you do a screenshot of the currencies listing in System-&gt;Currencies ?

You always need to have a base price (for a minimum quantity of 0) for a product, even if you don't use it.
If you don't have a base price, it won't work properly.

I think that the problem might have been me changing the base currency after setting up a couple of demo products. It would seem that deleting the products and putting them on again has resolved the issue.
