I think Paul Maul was being sarcastic.
Tommybomb, if you see this post and you've found the five bonus stickers that I need, I'll offer $5.00 - $1.00 for each of them. Is that all right with you? Please let me know.
Put yourself in his shoes. You offered $5 each,
I'll start things off at $25.00 - $5.00 for each one of them.
so he began looking through boxes of stickers for them.
I just finished going through my cards. I have one more box to go through but I've not found them.
Then you lowballed him to only $2 to $3 each
I've been thinking it over, tommybomb, and I think my first offer of $25.00 - $5.00 for each - that I made for these five Wackys is too high. So now I'm going to go lower and offer either $15.00 - $3.00 for each - or $10.00 - $2.00 for each.
Now, you're only offering $1 each? Do you really think that's increasing his incentive to find them? You also gave him the poor unemployed speech, that you can't afford $25,
Remember, I'm unemployed and can't pay exorbitant prices.
but a little research in other forum topics shows that you'll gladly plop down $30 for the Christmas Post Cards.
Okay, I'm in for a set.
So why wouldn't you put down $25 for something you need more than he thinks?
I only need just the five mentioned above, but I need them more than you think!
Does that recap it sufficiently?
