OUR DEAL IS NOT LIKE THE STORES THAT OFFER THE "buy one and receive a 15% discount on a 2nd item of equal or lesser value" gimmick, which translates to a 7 1/2% discount - YOU SHALL RECIVE A 15% DISCOUNT ON YOUR WINNING BIDS OF 2 OR MORE AUCTION, e.g., you win 1 auction for $100 & another for $40 - your discount will be $21; also, unlike some stores that jack up prices and then run a sale or state that sale discounts apply to "original prices", our combined purchase discount applies to the lowest price that a lot has ever been offered at. The discount will be applied to the combined invoice that we shall send-please do not pay before receiving our invoice, else you will be overpaying.
