Guys you are buying the right to purchase a share at 21c. You are not buying the share at 1c
Please elaborate further if you can.

^Bossly unit's explanation to meYou want to buy 100 shares at 21c. To do this, you first have to buy the rights to buy the 100 shares at 21c, for which you pay 1c per right.
So your 100 shares will cost you 22c per share.
I think...
Use the sharenet APP
Called EE, we cant buy the rights. unless you had shares before last week

That is confusing beyond comprehension for a layman like myself.
You buy a right to buy a share at a cheaper rate. 1c for the right and then you can use that right to pay 21c for a share. I think. Brain hurts. Need coffee...

Sure, I will sell you a contract (the right) to buy the share at 21c, but I will charge you 1c for the piece of paper that I've written the contract on.
So you will pay 1c for the paper containing the contract/right. Total per share would thus be 1c for the paper and 21c for the actual share.
ThanksI can stop breaking my F5 key now...
