Pandatron Posted July 21, 2023 Share Don't have an issue with the low ball offers, part of the game. Seem to be a few who accept the price and then come with a story about the dog dying, bills etc around pay time. . Can only offer a lower amount. As it's not an emergency sale, I'm like cool, give me a shout when the account fills up. They then get pissy about the deal and not acceptting the new offer. W Smith, nevilledelport, Mtree and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got an offer the other day and when I replied to progress the conversation, suddenly he was buying a house and needed the cash. Then why make the offer in the first place ? Bizarre!

Few months later and bike was still struggling to be resold.  🙃 mecheng89 and Sprockets 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
love2fly Posted July 21, 2023 Share I hate when I get a dumb offer without the offerer even viewing the item. What's the reason for a selling price then?? Even better when you're asking, say R1,000 and you get an offer of R600 - CASH! Were you expecting to pay me in Gummy bears or cattle or what? I only take cash FFS! 🤣 WaynejG, stevieg8, ChrisF and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shebeen Posted November 10, 2023 Share my next strategy. start a second profile for selling. put up a bike worth R20k for R25k get the low ball offer from reseller for R6k. Accept the offer and give the bank details for SPCA. close down account and disappear... woof woof Ruben101, Zebra, splat and 8 others 4 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
