Default O/T Pet Peeve on Best Offers (Ebay)

Posted By: T206Collector

<<I make a best offer for about the price that this very card sold for a few weeks ago.>>

You say "about" -- was it slightly less, slightly more or exactly the same?

If it was slightly less or exactly the same, then if I was the seller I would obviously not be taking that number. Heck, that's what I bought it for, and I'm looking to turn some kind of profit. Even if it's an offer that's only slightly better than what I paid, I'd probably turn it down for the same reason. Heck, if that's what you wanted to pay for the card, then you should have bid a few weeks ago at that price. The seller should not be penalized for nabbing it while the nabbing was good and, if he got it at a below market price for some reason, then he deserves a profit.

But it is rude not to respond at all to a best offer.
