How many offers above your asking price have you had?

Well Bill ( wildbill1973z28 ), you were partially to blame for my negative. I was selling my first item on here, date change a couple times with the original buyer and you PMed me. Still have the PM, and I quote, "no one on the trader will blame u for selling it to me for more money, my offer is a bettrr offer”. Having just joined, I did not know/understand the rules of the site. Live and learn.

Now that funny right there...sorta lol.

So is the understanding of basic economics and common sense apparently

Common Sense is a flower that doesn’t grow in every ones garden.

That is called CHARACTER.

I will admit, however, that I have also done some buys and sells with an obvious “wheeler-dealer” and applied the Jerry Clower Uncle Versy biblical justification “He was a stranger...and I took him in” lol.

Gee..I guess the OP Bill was serious when he said "I have on a few occasions offered more than someone’s asking price, even after PMs have been sent!"

And then tried to convince the seller that ""no one on the trader will blame u for selling it to me for more money, my offer is a bettrr offer”. "..
.


I wondered why the OP started this thread, it didn't make sense but now I'm thinking its some kinda NewYears resolution to make amends and confess things..

Never had that happen to me, but I usually post my stuff for trade. And I would never offer more than asking price—that makes no sense to me.

That is called dosing him with some of his own meds.

Haven't done it on here. But I was looking for a nice Jeep XJ for my son. Found one but the seller had someone interested in it that had offered him more than his asking price. So I upped my offer over his. Went and picked up the XJ and seller sold it to me for $300 less than my offer. He had actually under priced it anyway. So my offer was a realistic price for the XJ.

I usually try to be the highest bidder.

The understanding of contract law on this site is very weak.
