VIL Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Sorry if this has been discussed before but does anyone else find this annoying? Firstly I would like to make it clear that this post is nothing to do with this forum! But in general I find it a right pain in the **** when you enquire about buying something and the anwer you get is `make me an offer`. Now of course I appreciate the seller wants the most for the goods and the buyer wants to pay the least amount, but why not just set a price? As when you do `make them an offer` they get all upset about what you have offered? Even to the extent that they dont get back to you anymore or wont entertain discussing it with you any further! If, as a seller you know the price you would be happy with why not state it from the start and the buyer can decide yes or no! Saves all the pissing about! Phew...feel better ;0) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoffvalenti Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Couldn't agree more. If you're selling something just name the price, unless you're so embarrassed because its so ridiculously expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoboblio Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 To me, "Make me an offer" sounds like "I can't be bothered to set a fair price". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 It's more a "I know how much I'd like but I don't want to miss the chance that someone might offer more" thing isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesmark Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 It bugs me too, thats why I always post a low offer. If people cannot be arsed to name a price why should I be arsed to put down a proper bid. I also when I feel that I have given a fair offer hate when they just blank your offer or PM, I recently bid for a original headunit and am still waiting for person to get back to me although reading the PM an hour after I sent it. It is just damn rudeness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Geneb Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 make me an offer and i'll give you the right answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I don't like the "make me an offer" either, although I does give yiu a chance to take the piss. If you make a low offer and the object doesn't sell then the buyer may come back to you!! Happened to me last week. A guy with a white 94 pre-facelift Supe wanted £5600 and then put in e-bay. During our e-mails I said I wouldn't pay more than 4.5 - 5k. The car didn't go. After a week I get an e-mail saying that he would like to accept my offer of 5k if I was still interested.!! I had just picked up a 96 facelift for the same price!! Happy days. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrivingTheDream Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Agree with the post but if your selling something that you genuinely have no clue as to its worth then its ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Agree with the post but if your selling something that you genuinely have no clue as to its worth then its ok. Agreed. On the flip side, advertise something for £50, why is it OK for people to offer £40 via PM, I said I would sell for £50, not £40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
