I don't think you get how an auction works: you're supposed to go lower than my bid, not just meet it with the same conditions.

i gave him better offer because included better option. That's also good. anyway, price is 2 low for me

I think he understands your reasoning, but this being an auction its gentleman rules. And that wouldn't fly at an actual auction, maybe a tradeshow, but not an auction.

If someone drop the price to 40s I could buy some hundreds too...

I can't find the word "auction" or a reference to "standard" rules anywhere else in this thread.

Then google gentleman rules:

A gentlemen's agreement or gentleman's agreement is an informal and legally non-binding agreement between two or more parties. It is typically oral, though it may be written, or simply understood as part of an unspoken agreement by convention or through mutually beneficial etiquette. The essence of a gentlemen's agreement is that it relies upon the honor of the parties for its fulfillment, rather than being in any way enforceable. It is, therefore, distinct from a legal agreement or contract, which can be enforced if necessary.

oh yeah and
auc·tion
ˈôkSH(ə)n/

Oh, at the time I was just annoyed because he implied I did not have them in stock.
But we're derailing, and with 5 hours left on the clock spalari is winning, I think.
