another ebay oddity
02GF74 - 27/8/10 at 08:49 AM

put in an offer of £ 18 on a KMC gold chain (bike chain before you think I am turning into some sorta gansta) with BIN of £ 22.50.

seller sent counter offer of £ 20.50.

so I then put in a counter counter offer of £ 20 but for 2 chains and it was accepted!! - did not expect that to happen. (ofcrouse now thinking should I have offered £ 19.50!)

so it goes to show, sometimes it is worth pissing about counter offering.

damn .... now I want a red one

wont that be £40?

Yeah lol, if you put £20 in the offer box and 2 in the quntity it would be £40 I think. You would have had to offer £10 for a quantity of 2 for it to equal £20 total.
The price is per item as far as I know.

So if you want a red one, just email the seller now and swap one of your gold ones to red!

and red must be cheaper than gold so counter the countered counter

'tis true, gold is at an all time high. Stupid time of the year to buy it if you ask me.

^^^ price is per chain, so buying 2 chains I have saved £ 1.


.... ofcourse I found out that I could get an SL chain for £27 ish ... which is the type I was really after ..... oh welll.,
