Since when are there cut and dried rules for making a deal. Sometimes you have to be creative to get er done.

Build an anticipated discount into your asking price. Hagglers love to win in a negotiation.

Some one inquires about a card that you really don’t want to sell and asks for a price. Well, hell, everything is for sale in reality. “Make me an offer I cannot refuse.”

“What’s your best price?” from a buyer? Now this is a turn off. Sellers should avoid negotiating against themselves.

If you live in an “I’ll take it” world only, you should invest in an online marketing course.

So many other possibilities to consider.

Buy three, get the fourth free (and set the prices accordingly).

Etc etc etc

BST ,with few rules (thanks Leon), is a wonderful venue to experiment with creative marketing techniques. You will never appeal to all buyers, unless you give your merchandise away, and even then some buyers will demand free shipping.

Everyone is entitled to their preferences, but I guarantee this thread will not result in a consensus of opinion.

I once got booted off a Facebook vintage basketball group, reason? I was told by the Admin you can’t have the buyers pay the fee….I said Wrong It’s my Card/My Rules….he went on to lecture about EBay fees sellers encounter ect, my reply this isn’t ebay it’s Facebook. Next step I’m booted, I just laughed.

THIS STATEMENT is something that we probably could come at least close to consensus on!

I think this applies to the Covid vaccine thread in the watercooler section as well.
