Quick thoughts

[Poly Hive]

I have a line on some poly for sale. Some is assembled but never used, how well assembled I don't know. Some of the supers are in the box.

Maisemore kit.

Two floors, roofs, broods.

Five supers.

All up by my tally is £231.06 as per website.

What would you offer?

quick reaction - around £160 about two thirds of new - depends on what it looks like of course.

If going by two thirds percentage I'd say X=0.66 x 231.06

In the sales you can pick up a full hive. Brood box, floor, roof, crownboard and 2 supers for £78.

All brand new and delivered for free.

Id say closer to £120 for what you have or 0.51 x FV (where FV = Full Value)

ohhh....you mean:

Full hive + brood box + floor + roof + crownboard + 2 * suppers = £78

(word equation)

What if I didnt want the roof? Just knock it off the £78!

Full hive + brood box + floor + crownboard + 2 * suppers = £78 - roof

Them's the

I learned it as BODMAS (brackets, order, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction) but my sons tell me they teach it as BIDMAS (I=indices) now. Either way, it is the sequence that you perform arithmetic operations

I get that frequently on ebay when people start at silly high prices.. Occasionally I get bargains as well.

Now my approach is: If the asking price is silly high, wait and wait and wait until even the dumbest vendor realises it is.. Sometimes it sells at silly prices to even dumber buyers..
