This thread is basically the reason why I do not post the actual sold for price in my listing. I try to price high enough to not only satisfy myself, but also to discourage flippers. I am never selling out of need to sell, at least not yet.

But past experience with a buyer matters when it comes to discounts.

For me $NOT SOLD is okay, and so is $OLD.

For clarity here, I do not sell snot.

If nothing sells in a lot, I may offer a discount as a percentage reduction without changing the asking price.

I am not a fan of sequential price reductions to bump a BST listing that is initially listed well above market value.

I do not assume any responsibility for not following any of the rules or preferences above.

Just to be clear, what is the going rate for snot from a retired Obgyn living in Palm Springs?

Net54 needs to institute a rule.

Once you purchase a card, you must hold onto it for a minimum of 5 years.

I’ve done some deliveries but I’m not an ObGyn.

I do not live in Palm Springs but I’ve been there.

I am retired though and I am living.

That said I would say $7.00/shot.

That price was determined by a snowman algorithm regressed to the mean and differentiated to account for viscosity variations, before multiplying by pi and dividing by the lowest common denominator of 2562 and 7833.

I can also reassure you that a Koufax curve ball does not drop faster than a sine wave.

Oh and I do have an Ivy League degree in Mathematics. There was no one in our program who knew Snowman.

I sell infrequently but have always set what I thought was a fair price and stuck to it. I hope you make money if you are flipping it, as maybe you come back and buy more. I have never done the “friends” discount where an item has different prices depending on our perceived level of friendship.

When I buy I stick to the same thing. I don’t ask for friendship discounts and will payup if I need a particular item.

Handling it this way I have never had hurt feelings on the friend discount topic or getting mad if someone made money off buying from me.

My two cents.

Something tells me a lot of flippers will be going by the wayside once they start hearing from the IRS next year.
