I can't believe some ebay sellers!
After a disk lock and fancied one of the combined alarms, so this one on the bay inviting best offers seemed like a good well made item, it was listed
with a buy it now of £22.25 so thought a £20 quid offer was fair, 2nd offer of £21 was immediatly declined anyway my 3rd and final offer was £22 and
he's just declined it..wtf. Why bother doing a best offer, bloody time wasting knobheads really wind me up.

I've seen a few where the vendor has replied with a 'counter-offer' of the full amount!

sounds normal to me - has happened more times than not to me with offers

wear him down slowly/
I popped a £15 best offer on a regulator/rectifier for my ZZR600 against
the BIN of £25. Was rejected and the gadget went unsold.
Relisted and smae offer, again relected and unsold. He listed for a third time
and accepted my fifteen quid.

As a selley you set parameters as to what is acceptable or not, i.e. decline any offer below £22, refer any offer over £22, accept an offer over
£22.25, does seem a bit petty that one though.
I've had some good deals with offers, both buying and selling, but some sellers get upset when you dont accept a counter....

I offered £40 for some £50 carbs for a bike I was repairing and the seller snatched my hand off. I wished I'd started lower then.  He's
probably already sold some cheap and needs to sell the rest higher to keep his profit margin. I've seen those things cheaper in shops.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

You can only assume these people are
actually *that* stupid that the concept of how a BIN with BestOffer is meant to work is actually beyond them.

Lol Correct me if im wrong, but don't you pay extra to have a best offer? Whats the point in wasting money? Maybe the best offer he'd
accept would have been 22.24?
Made me giggle though lol
