WTF is wrong with some people here??

[ak-]

You're all going to get mad at me for how much i got my roof rack with attachments then & fairing.

[Wh33lhop]

thing is, if i listed them at 120, i'd have a bunch of people offering 100.

Of course you would. People figure that if you list it for x amount, you'll probably take a little below that. If you want to get $100 shipped for them, advertise it for $120 shipped or let the seller know you're not coming down on price beforehand. Simple rules of the game. I'll usually list stuff for a little higher than I'd reasonably want to get for it in anticipation of these antics, unless I just want to unload it then and there.

There was no call for the shitty attitude, the offer was made politely and could just have easily been refused politely. I mean really, it's not like he called you a porch monkey in the process... Take a deep breath and learn what it's like to sell something on here before you continue to suck up our bandwidth with pointless rants like this.

BTW, you're a porch monkey.

in for rape, r3v style.

[SpecM]

lowballing isn't low, its buisness

so he made you a cheap offer... wouldn't try to save $20 if you could?

[FredK]

Someone offered me $200 shipped for a nearly new $540 JB Racing Flywheel. Overseas. That is a lowball.

I just say, no thanks.

I felt like fashioning some horse manure into a 228 millimeter puck, and sending it to this guy. But then, the feeling passed. I make offers on items I feel there might be room for negotiation, for whatever reason--been on the market too long, overpriced, etc.

umm i have these springs and i dont like them much...its bumpy and the springs hit and make a squeaky noise...anyone know what good shocks to use or do i need new springs

[z31maniac]

OP you're a douchey, whiny waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles.

I was offered $300 shipped for a $1000 set of TMS headers that also included a custom downpipe to clear the stock CAB. That's a lowball and I didn't act like a whiny bitch about it.

Just returned the PM and said "Sorry that's not going to get it done."

Ban hammer for being a bitch.

[VacMan]

First off, Jon is trying to build a LeMons car, so if he can save $20 that's huge and I don't blame him a bit for asking. He wasn't shitty until you were.

Secondly, you need to learn how to post an ad. If you want a set price, you say FIRM. If you don't, expect people to assume you're starting a bit high to allow room for negotiation. That's the way the world works, not just R3V.

This thread should be entitled "WTF is wrong with people who are newbs at life??"

[ben312]

last i checked, the internet was fairly vast, and a couple of pages about some dipshit without 2 nickels to rub together isnt gonna slow down the whole works. lighten up.

Someone somewhere has to pay for the bandwith you waste with this thread. Your also being a tool. He makes you an offer, all you had to do was say no. Also you are selling used auto parts on the internet, on r3v none the less, you should expect to be lowballed. If you do not like an offer just do not reply or say no.

[Aptyp]

That's why I never answer lowball PM's.

Exactly... Either reply "No, thanks" or leave them wondering about what happened and what they did wrong.

[MR 325]

Cry me a fucking river.

[N2MYE30]

Bad form OP. Its one thing biatch about it, but to put the buyers name too? Bad form.

[Strelok]

You're selling used springs for a 20 year old car. What the hell did you expect?

[Atreus]

when you're selling shit online, you need to be aware that everyone is 'usually' looking for a good deal, and won't hesitate to ask.

i'm just catching up to this thread, but if you did not put FIRM, AND you posted this on R3V, you better be prepared when someone throws out a different price from yours.'
while i don't know the value of these springs, making a callout thread about bartering online is just waffleswaffleswaffleswaffleswaffles, imo.
