"Taking offers" for low-value items

[indiscriminate_hater]

What's your opinion on people saying "taking offers on X" for low-value items? Anything less than about 20k has a pretty well-defined price.

Sure, sometimes it helps the seller get a higher price than they normally would. But it's ridiculous. Don't pretend like you have a valuable item.

That last one is especially bad. It's a fucking Peacebringer, you're going to get 3k for it whether you like it or not.

Rustled,

I take this as something like "flexible on price, make an offer and ill take as long as it isnt ridiculously low"

Not sure why anyone would be rustled

I think people just don't want to ruin their chance of getting a high offer than the standard. Honestly I say just make everyone's life easier and just decide what the lowest amount you would accept for the item and stay firm to it.

And if someone is being priced at something low / standard , I don't see the need to try and get it super cheap. There's nothing more annoying than selling something reasonably priced, like a fungi for 41k and being asked "well would you do 39k?"

THIS goes doubly so for cheap items.

Offer me enough more than the vendor to justify being in this zone, and more than you think anyone else will in the next 5 mins and it is yours.

i only ever say that if liek I don't actually need to sell it, but wouldn't mind having extra monies. i just sume that other peoples doing it are lookin for premiums too, but still low ball them if it something i want /shrug

Laughed out loud when I saw my post made the cut. I said offer on the Peacebringer because I've had it for a long time and don't know if the price has gone up with the changes that are supposed to be coming for 2 hand blunt similar to what happened with Tranquil Staff. Still haven't sold it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I routinely sell things for about 50%-75% market value just so I don't have to sit in EC
