Nads/twobob,
Just did a catch up on this, yes I'm kudos1uk sorry about the radio nads
I just love haggle, the one I can't get over is the silver fox bike, I spent so much time on that one and did not think anyone could get £20 off.

Hello Tony! Nice to speak to you.
No need to apologise, you found the cheapest price... I was wounded though thought I bagged my first haggle.
I didnt realise anyone had got £20 off on that, closes I got was £17.
It is addictive and yourself anf Twobob will know best what that feeling is like when you find a lower price! I want more haggles! grrr!0 -
darn, out haggled out on a couple of items, well cheeky!0

I'm gutted about TwoBobs hoilday it was on Portland Direct for £910 when I got out haggled by £10 I checked again and Portland direct had reduced it to £900.
I have been out haggled quite a lot then the price gets removed and I'm the winner again, I think people make errors and forget postsge etc.
One person out haggled me on two different items, one they put 1p down for a camera and later both were removed..0 -
Was it jsut Tony and I who thought this thread had been removed?!
Looks like haggel4me is getitng more popular, plenty of stuff on their now.
Stuck on the DYson though, no prices foudn less than 1600 -
This site's gonna be great once it gets a bit more popular, I've got 2 winning haggles at the moment (even beat Kudos, well chuffed about that one hehe), it's more about the winning than the money (20% of the saving - 25% admin fee doesn't leave you with much, especially when the saving is capped at 10% of the benchmark value!), I love finding stuff cheap (and no doubt I'll be using this in future when I'm buying stuff too, not that it's going to be very easy to beat my benchmark prices hehe!)
Might even stick an ad about this on the local supermarket information board next time I'm in there, bit of free advertising for them (and more items for me to haggle on).

I lvoe the challenge, I get well wound up if I can't find it cheaper! Could you explain the saving again please?
I thought you get 20% of the saving you find, what's this about 10% capping?!If you find it cheaper than anyone else, then you get paid 20% of the saving. Simple as that.
Kudos is very quick, but the car one has miffed me cos I know his price is incorrect!

Lol I'm not even going to try the car - best place to buy one is offline and I don't have time to go round the Subaru dealerships.
Anyway, yeah it's capped at 10% of the benchmark price. This is in the terms somewhere, and it's because otherwise they wouldn't be able to quote a maximum fee to the person who creates the listing.
I do agree they should revise that line you quoted above (prob not deliberately misleading, but nonetheless misleading, especially since you actually get paid 15% of the saving (they take a 25% commission, aka 5% of the saving)).0 -
