The deal was that the TFW guy pay an amount somewhere in between, and he offered to throw in the MIB Blue into the mix (he knows money is not going to be good enough to convince me).
Blue brought me across the line and he immediately became preferred buyer despite the cash amount being less than the highest offeror.
Payment was a bit more complex because we have never dealt with each other before. However, I convinced him that he has to pay me the cash value AND the value we place on Blue before I would send him marlboor.
Once he received marlboor, I would "refund" him the cash value we placed on Blue and then he would send Blue as if I was purchasing from him.
It may sound strange at first, but I think that that's the only way to make trades of this nature work where the parties don't know each other.
