Putting a price vs. asking for an offer...

[razzzorsharp]

I am not saying this to any one person but to the forum. If it is uncalled for or in the wrong place feel free to delete it but I hate it when people ask for an offer. I don't want to haggle nor do I know what a fair price is. Maybe I am the only one but I generally am not going to go about buying these things when there are not set prices.

 

Again, feel free to delete if needed.

One more thing, I use to do this as well but someone once told me that putting a price on them will make them sell easier. Just want to help others out.

agreed...

 

I don't go by market value when making purchases on this board, mainly because I have no idea what market value is. I don't collect anything for resale, I collect it because I want it...lol

 

I go by what I want and what I'm willing to pay for it. If my offers seem low, that is because I offer what I am willing to pay, not how much it "might" be worth to other people.

 

I too like to see prices posted, makes the entire process easier.

i can agree to a point but, when i was selling my prince bobble i didnt know what to ask. if i asked 250 for it some might say thats way too high. if i say make an offer and you offer 125 and thats what YOU want to pay i may take it and be perfectly happy. so its a win-win. we both feel as if we get fair deals. and if you go by what your willing to pay and not market value, thats the same thing as making an offer. you offer what your willing to pay. and your not paying what it "might" be worth to other people you are paying what its worth to you. i can understand what you guys are saying but if you dont like the make an offer fine. dont buy it. your not the only people with money. not trying to sound like a jerk but come on, dont we all have better things to "vent" about other then how people sell their own items. again not trying to be a jerk.

I have to absolutely really want an item to make an offer. If there is not a price for what someone wants for their item I won't even think about purchasing it. There maybe a total of 10 things that I would make an offer, but realistically even though they are Brewers related they most likely will never be offered on this forum.

Matt, if I had better things to do, I wouldn't be on an internet forum. What I think it is, is trying to get as much as possible for your product. If that wrong, nope, it's capitalism. My thing is it turns into Ebay at times it seems with making offers. Again, it's not a big deal, I just won't make offers, but I am sure many others will.
