Low balling

[poopdaddy]

i thought low balling was when you had a hole in your underwear and one of the bays falls through..
no such thing as a low ball offer, only sucky traders who cant say "no thanks" or make a counter offer....

a fair offer say on a 300$ gun that they are asking 325$

No used gun has an absolute value, $300 to you may be $350 to them, or the other way round.

Offer away, is what I say.

That's what I thought as a buyer offer low as a seller ask high then meet in the middle.

That $300 gun is a $75 gun to the pawn shop if you ask them to buy it.

Some of these guys will not counter what's that about

Usually when they say "Firm" that means they overpaid for it and they are trying to get their money back from you.

Make your offer and don't ask the seller to bring it to you. If you think the gun is way over priced move on.

I personally would rather people offer. Worst I will say is no thank you. I realize others may disagree. As a general rule though, I don't offer unless I can at least reach 75 percent of the value they seek. There have been very few exceptions to this.

that is what everyone wants to do here, AND they want you to drive and deliver it to them.

Not me. I'd rather pay you $10.00 and let the USPS bring it to me.

Some folks are just ignorant/stupid to understand the simplicity of shipping.
Most anybody with 25+ FB isn't likely to do you wrong in a shipping trade.
