If a card is priced @ 250% of the avg. of the last three sales for the same card in the same grade, then a 40% offer may not be ridiculous to anyone but the seller. If the same card was priced @ 125% of such, then IMO a 40% offer would be ridiculous. In that instance I think it does have to do directly with how ridiculous the BIN price is. Having said all that, anyone is entitled to try to sell their goods for any price they want. IMO, if they want to "lead" the market very aggressively they should have some thick skin.

I have no problem with making an offer of 75-80% if I feel the BIN is a little high. The only problem is that, obviously, if you really want the card you worry someone will come in and BIN it before you hear back from the seller, but that's the chance you take.
Not suprisingly I have had good success on reasonable offers submitted to Net54 sellers. ![]() Last edited by tbob; 06-25-2009 at 10:41 AM. |

I've taken to using the BIN/Best Offer quite a bit when I sell... I try to respond to every offer I get although I think I have been remiss on occassion, especially on offers right before the item closes.
What I like most about the process is that: (1) I don't have to worry about selling something for a lot less than I want to and; (2) I can list an item for a month. Also eBay's percentage is lower than an auction .... As a buyer I've done pretty well when I do make offers -- at least in getting counter-offers. |
