Rule 10 ) "* The first person to offer the ASKING price MAY get the goods even if there are offers already tabled but not accepted, (it remains the sellers right to decide what offer to take)
The first guy who offered to collect didn't offer the asking price, and then a higher offer came in, which still wasn't within the asking but getting there. So the rule above is correct. And im sure we dont need other people ramming the rules down people throats when you really have understood it.
