Pagination Redirect Issue in author.php Using Custom Post Types

In author.php I’m trying to paginate results limited to three specific custom post types using the wp-pagenavi plugin.

Hovering over the links in the pagination list shows the correct url structure for the pagination but when clicked redirects to /page/0/ instead of /page/2/ or /page/3/ etc. Have tried changing permalink structure, saving the permalink settings, changing to default, resetting the postdata, merging the queries, on and on, etc… Still getting a /page/0/ redirect with pretty permalinks and a 404 with default structure. Anyway, allons-y:

<?php $paged = (get_query_var('page')) ? get_query_var('page') : 1;
    query_posts( array(
        'post_type' => array(
                    'sale',
                    'vacation',
                    'lease',
                    ),
        'tax_query' => array(
            array(
        'taxonomy' => 'author',
        'field' => 'slug',
        'terms' => $curauth->user_login
            )
        ),
        'paged' => $paged,
        'tag__not_in'=>array('34'),
        'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
        'meta_key' => 'price',
        'order' => 'DESC',
        'posts_per_page' => '9' ) // for paging links to work
        );
?> 

<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>

<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

    //code, hooks, etc…

<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php wp_pagenavi(); ?>

<?php else : ?>

    // some other stuff

<?php endif; wp_reset_query(); ?>

So, when the numbers within the wp_pagenavi() hook are clicked, I get the redirect to /page/0/. No idea what’s happening, but there seems to be issues with CPT pagination. Some of the issues have been resolved but I can’t find a solution that applys to the author pages and this specific redirect issue.

Other notes: I am using w3 total cache, so my .htaccess has all of those rules along with the basic wordpress stuff.
