I said "That paperwork lying face down on my computer desk is an itemised spreadsheet of my entire collection including purchase prices....make me an offer on the entire collection then turn the spreadsheet face up".

He made an offer then turned the spreadsheet over and his offer was a little over half the price I had paid
