[QUOTE="Ian_C, post: 407124, member: 6115"] Actually, you did. After the initial post said "offers considered in order of arrival", you told him "no offers on this". You set the terms of not being negotiable. You also DID say you would try and get him pics later on - which as a buyer would indicate you are in the negotiating stage and was awaiting your next reply. Was "this" just the Scout, or the Yoda too? And if so, why didn't the Yoda say "no offers"? To be fair, LL Scout's on ebay are ending in the £55 range on the upper end, so I don't think the price was unfair, but at the same time, many people, especially if looking for more than one figure, will ask 25% off (as Andy did), counting on a counter offer both are happy with. If you think 25% off is lowballing, you're going to be in for a surprise - there are LOTS of people out there that routinely ask for 50% or more off. THAT is lowballing. In any event, he asked for a whole £3 off the Yoda, on a figure you apparently would have considered offers on. Up to you to decide if you accept it of course, but the standard would have been to ensure he was unwilling to go higher before accepting the next person. Whatever, it's not really my business. Just trying to help explain why your sale was frowned upon, but if you've made your mind up to take your ball and go home, whatever. Best of luck. Ian [/QUOTE]
