Dan,

Nice to see someone who is not only interested in getting the best price but
understands that it is always best if both buyer and seller feel good about
the transaction. Being fair will always yield better results in the long
run.

I would agree that the seller made a mistake and really wanted to list the
auction at $24, or maybe even higher, and not $0.24 .

Best to contact the seller and see what he has to say. Then decide what is
the right thing to do.

Cheers,

tett

I'm wondering what a would be concidered a good price on small pieces of
Sikhote-Alin shrapnel. A
seller had a 1160 gram lot of 74 pieces listed with a BIN of 24 cents and a
shipping price of $50.
I think maybe the 24 cent BIN was a mistake, but it looks like he was
gouging quite a bit on the
shipping (even with it coming from Finland) and I wanted to do the BIN
before someone else did (as
surely someone would). So is $50.24 a good price for this lot, or should I
tell the seller that
he's "off the hook" (assuming that it was an accident). Or would the
ethical thing to do to be to
let him "off the hook" good deal or not?

Here's the lot:
