Lee BehrensI decided to try using the Best offer feature on Ebay fixed listing. One of the items I used it on was a T206 Matty WC that was lowgrade but presentable, the BIN was $99. The first offer I got was $27, gee thanks for the effort. The second $47, not quite half but close. The third $35, why waste our time, and the fourth I finally got a reasonable offer of $70. I was thinking that it was a nice feature but boy after offers like that I certainly don't plan on using it again.
Do these people with offers less than 40% really think they are making an offer? Occasionally I get off ebay offers for my cards that are also way out line, I personally find it insulting. That is one of the reasons I will probably not use that feature again.
I don't mind offers but be in the ballpark, if it's not within 80% of the starting bid, to me it's a waste of both oour times. I have made offers in the past but always keep them within reason of the staring bid.
