I don’t mind any of it. If someone asked me the lowest I’d take for a game I’m selling, I’ll tell them. I do agree it’s an odd request though. Just make an offer.

Quoted from Phbooms:My favorites are when I get offered boats or appliances from Craiglist pin sales. I stopped using Craigslist because of all the weird offers. At least here you can research the buyer some and feel them out before responding.
Yeah. One time someone just listed everything in their garage and said I could have whatever.
Quoted from vdojaq:I have no issue with low offers that are reasonable. If I am asking $3K for a machine, I am not going to get upset at someone offering $2200. It's a starting point to negotiations. However, a starting offer of $1500 is going to get you crickets. The second someone tries to lecture me on pricing, game over, we are done.
But why why can’t you just say thanks but no thanks. Lowest I’ll go is $Xxx
Quoted from RCA1:Because their next offer is below whatever you say. Guaranteed.
Then you say thanks but no thanks. Haha
Quoted from vdojaq:Why should I as a seller throw out the lowest I will go is $X right away?
Because it’s easy? Take off $100 and stay there. My lowest is usually much higher with this type of potential buyer.
Quoted from vdojaq:Lets get a round or two of offers going 1st,
Yeah I guess I don’t want to go round and round. I’d rather sell the game and move on.
Why is lowballing bad? I’ve never understood that. If I’m selling a $2,000 game and someone offers me two dollars for it, I’m going to say thanks but no thanks, lowest I’ll go is $1800. Let me know if you change your mind.
