Well, we now know that you are going to have a decision between £19,250 and whatever is in your box. But now we find out not only what is in your box, but what other offers could have confronted you... the strange thing here is that we want to see blues in one way but we also know that would have meant a higher offer to come... but that's the nature of the Pivot, a compromise decision.
5 - £50. We now know you're not going to be leaving with less than £100, but we're also more likely to get a higher offer now. 20 - £750. It's looking promising for your chances of a bigger final offer, but it's also looking like you could have Dealt or Pivoted on a higher sum of money if you had chosen to No Deal... 18 - £15,000. That ensures you'll have a significant decision, as the one amount really close to the Pivot amount is now off the board. Still the quarter-million is there, and now we'd rather like it or £50,000 on the table, because this offer's going to be higher...
Banker's offer would've been:
£38,500
Twice as much. The Banker says that if you had chosen to Pivot at this point, the guaranteed minimum offer would have been £12,500 and that if you had the quarter-million on the table it would have been £125,000. Remember, he has not made any promise on the offer you actually chose to Pivot...
