What I think makes the most sense is what Troy (I think) mentioned - having
two different kinds of lots at different prices.  Lot A would be some bulk

tells you that you already have blue snergwiffles listed, and asks if you want
to just update the quantity - tell it no.

(...) I know some people don't buy because they don't want (or need) huge quantities, and I'm ok with that, but if there weren't a goodly number of people who are ok with buying in those quantities I wouldn't have had 120+ orders in the last few (...)
