I offered $150, because I'm pinballjim and I offered what it's worth to pinballjim. --- End quote --- That makes it no less of lowball. It is far less than what it is actually worth. Whether or not the offer was a lowball was the arguement taking place. Please do not change the arguement to suit pinballjim's needs. |

OK...ok...ok...it was a LOWBALL offer... is there something WRONG with that? |

--- Quote from: pinballjim on April 05, 2007, 03:27:48 pm ---Good thing that someone savvy enough to post on a hobbyist message board has you to do his research for him. Although, I think if he found this place, he knows about Google and Ebay. Call it a hunch. Best of luck to the seller. --- End quote --- I don't know what that has to do with you denying it was a lowball, but ok. --- Quote from: FrizzleFried on April 05, 2007, 03:28:09 pm ---OK...ok...ok...it was a LOWBALL offer... is there something WRONG with that? --- End quote --- I don't think so. Any seller should know how to deal with that. I was just making a point that $150 was in fact a lowball offer. pinballjim said otherwise. We argued. I think he finally gets it, so it is done. Good luck to the seller. |

Offers are meant to be made by pm, especially low ball offers to deter off-topic banter such as this. Making a fair offer to a colleague of the hobby, and offering to get what appears to be a hulking piece of junk out of an old lady's basement are two different things. In the latter case, "$150 and I pick it up tonight" would be a valid offer. For a fellow hobbyist who even has taken the time to buy a new CPO, and by the wording of the post is not trying to offload "a hulking piece of crap in the basement", $150 and I pick it up offer is insulting. |

I tend to make offers in the thread with the intention that even if it gets rejected, at least it sets a baseline for others who would make offers after me. I'm not a big fan of lowballing, personally. If a person wants an offer I'm going to offer them something on the low end of market value. Have I gotten games for way below? Sure, but those prices were dictated by the seller, not an accepted offer. I see a substantial difference between offering $75 and buying for a $75 asking price. |
