Dear armcodirect,

so for £12.71 do I get one meter or two meters ?

eBay Member:

Hi,

Thanks for the inquiry.

Please, it is supplied in 2m lengths but priced per metre.

Dear armcodirect,

how much will I get (in length) if I buy the ebay item for £12.71

Err! If it's priced per metre shouldn't that be £25.42

1m, it's a bit misleading in my opinion.

My brain applies the same logic

He should price it per shortest length supplied, not per metre and then force a minimum order of 2 metres.

Find an alternate supplier

i've copied and pasted the messages below my post

anyway i bought the item twice and i received 2meters not 4meters

I read it as £12.71 per metre and the maximum single length is 2m. It could be made a lot clearer though!

That was exactly my thought, i.e. only pay for 1m and they cut it in half and just supply that piece, looks like the seller doesn't understand the English language very well.

Very confusing, and even if you did get 2m for £12.71 it would still be a rip off. Next time go to service metals, you would get a 5m length for that sort of money.
