I know, but it's just the principle. I mean, they are all e-posers. Why do they even bother? I mean... I've actually dealt with a few of these already... within a month.

 

Pay your membership,and sell them on the Forum.

 

Absolutely. Them's is the rules.

 

Sorry it's such a hassle. Good luck.

 

Isn't this post a very well disguised ad?

Even if it is... good luck selling your parts (consider this a "bump" )
Also, if you both agree on a price, only until money changes hands it becomes final.
Ask for a refundable Paypay for fuel before driving out anywhere.

 

I don't get what the problem with "bastard lowballers" is. It's his fault for driving around and apparently not having a concrete price. Don't like what they offer? Don't sell!! But don't get mad because someone is testing the waters so that they may possibly not have to spend more of their hard earned money.

There have been quite a few occasions in life that I have bought something from a private seller for less than I was expecting just because I gave it a shot and tried a low price. Am I ridiculous for thinking that it's a silly thing to get offended over?

 

No, that's not ridiculous but that's not what he's saying.

It's one thing to try to get a lower price when you meet in person, but if the seller is unwilling to go that low, it's your responsibility to pay the price that was previously agreed to. The seller was being curteous by agreeing to meet somewhere- the least you could do is buy it for the price you agreed to buy it for. I'd be pissed too...

 

I never understood why people got all pissed about lowball offers. An item is only worth what someone will pay for it and no one wants to pay more than they have to. If you dont like the price then tell them to pound sand.

Now, if you had agreed on a price and all that and they backed out that sucks. But this is just the nature of selling things.

 

 

I think low balling is okay over the net/phone, but the price should be set and honored when you drive out to meet the person.
