I wasted my time getting off twitter when you're coming with that drivel. Expand The same logic applies to all deal making though doesn’t it. You test the water with an opening bid or two before going to your final offer. This is the point where you really can’t afford to go any higher. I don’t know if we have hit that point yet or whether we were the ones taking the piss with lowball early bids. But seeing four or five offers rejected as publicly as this isn’t a great look.

thebrokendoll 10569 Posted August 28, 2024 Share Posted August 28, 2024 (edited) I wanted an old copper whistling kettle for the campervan wood stove. had a look on ebay and found exactly what I was looking for. put a cheeky bid in for £15 with 24 hours to go and checked in again with a minute to go only to find I'd been outbid. hit them with a big purple one in the last 15 seconds and got the fucking thing for £19.50.... ruthless, that's me.

Gemmill 51255 Posted August 28, 2024 Share Posted August 28, 2024 Did you see Alsopp has been reported to social services for letting her 15 year old kid go euro railing? Some cunt random member of the public must have done it and she's had a call from a social worker to express their concern. She's now on a list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
