If you look closer to the posting, those are for the mandarines that have a "0" rating, meaning the smallest ones that they cannot sell to the stores. The higher the rating, the more the cost. The ones my in-laws are selling all have much higher ratings. Research first tiger, rather than just posting as soon as you see a price.

go to 주문옵션, 못난이감귤 on the post, and you will see. for mandarines rated 2-7 (random selection), there is an additional fee. Aka, the fee mentioned on top is only 0 and 1 rated mandarines, which they cannot sell in stores.

I'm not being defensive. Just mentioning that the posting should be thoroughly checked. Many people gotten mandarines through us in the past, and they were extremely satisfied. All mandarines are a high rating, not the 0 or 1 rating that these are.

And, my reply in no way qualifies as a "rant", but rather an explanation.

How about sending us a sample?

How about sending a couple.

also, and you asked for it, why should i do your homework for you so you can promote fruit on here.

your original post says NOTHING about grades and stuff from 0 - 100. Yes, you are ranting... calling someone 'tiger' is universal rant language when speaking to another adult.

that said, how about a box of mandarins? Proof's in the pudding is what I always say. This may well be a gateway for your dad to sell many boxes for one free box to me.

Every Korean will tell you that the smaller ones taste better hence they are more expensive than the big ones. Bought a 10 kilo box (and the guy gave me 15-20 pieces extra) last week for 15,000 at my local market. They are really good.

I would suggest posting on a forum that doesnt have as many jerks.

Some people's attitudes here are terrible. A guy posts something that some people may be interested in and people jump in and try to tear him down. Pathetic.

Not at all. This is a public forum and a product was offered at a given price. Peronally, I found it very helpful to know that similar products can be had at roughly half the cost of the price state in the OP. As a married guy, I know damn well that if I bought a box of tangerines and had them delivered for 25K, but she knew that a box could be picked out and delivered for 15K, I'd be in for a fight. 'But, honey, the OP SAID it was a GREAT deal!'

Ever shop on eBay? Same thing. Some people just 'push the button' and assume that they're getting the best deal because they're buying on eBay. Not. In fact, you have to be careful to check prices on-line and via other eBay offers to ensure that you're getting the best possible quality for the best price.

aren't all mandarines picked right off a tree?... :O
