I admit I do lowball for a couple dollars here and there but this one pissed me off for some odd reason.


heres my original thread for the rims i was selling
http://www.revscene.net/forums/fs-16-4x100-t582681.html?t=582681

heres the PM i got today from a member:
idk if youre aware or not but Kal Tire is selling 17"s brand new for $86.
not sure what you paid, and i dont want to offend you, but how about $300 cash for the set and i'll pick em up.


rims - 86 x 4 = $344
tires - 80 x 4 = $320
tuner lugs, tax mount and balancing = $ 100 give or take
around $ 750 total

how the fuck did he come up with a $300 dollar offer?

btw he was paying CASH and picking them up!

I didn't know people paid by credit cards, and home deliveries were mandatory.

I hate lowballers!

why would you let something like that even bother you? So what the guy gave you a low ball there's worse things to worry about rather then a offer.

[q0192837465]

lol, why all up in arms? Just ignore it if he super lowballs u. This is the internet, of course ppl r gonna lowball u like no tomorrow since u won't know who he is. WHen u get lowballed 20 million times, u'll learn to brush it off.

Good luck bra

you know whats worse?....when you and the guy agree on a set price, and the guy short changes you buy 40bucks....thats a piss off....

[ilvtofu]

The wheels themselves will prolly sell for $300 on craigslist...

Haha it's probably not allowed for you to post which RS member it was

THIS.

Lowballing is annoying but at least it's up-front. Negotiate a price? Stick to your word unless there's a material reason to renegotiate.

no kidding....there was no reason for the short-change...he was getting top notch products and it was almost a kick to the balls...

adding salt to the wound, this guy was fairly old. I felt embarrassed for him...i took the 100 bucks and walked away...this fellow browses RS and drives a white evo.........

[StylinRed]

you're original thread says you sold for $450... and yet you're freaking out over an offer thats $150 less than that?



also the guy was probably assuming the Kal Tire sale included tires so his offer isn't outrageous

[ZhangFei]

i offer you $299

[twitchyzero]

there's bird shit on your car
-$200
i'll take it off your hands for $250..i'll pick em up tonight gimme a call

i would rather have this offer. No BS..lolz..If you came to me with that offer and i was desperate. I would probably sell it you because your actually telling the truth.

sold!

[StylinRed]

I dont think you read my message correctly, the guy told you that Kal Tire was selling the rims for 86$ each... he probably assumed they came with tires so if he thought that (and it seems like he did) then from his viewpoint that offer isn't far from outrageous

it has nothing to do with wether or not that a pricepoint like that is possible or not

[ZhangFei]

sold!

I knew you'd come around....

so when can I pick up?

[goo3]

why get upset? just ignore low ball offers as not serious.

:confused: being that incorrect means the offer was ridiculous, Don't people usually shop around before they buy, especially on online classified sites?
$300 is well below anything of that age :eek:

Although I agree with stylinred saying that if the buyer was a retard, this would've been a reasonable offer

[Synaptik]

who gives a shit, didnt you already sell these?

if everyone ranted about the lowballs they get this forum would be all QQ threads.

[Gary Oak]

[wingies]

[Death2Theft]

Because cash means double whatever the amount is. Dont u know by now? Internet sales 101.

or shows up and says he only has $20 less than what you agreed to. fags

[Nightwalker]

Who cares, say no.

I've taken the odd lowball when I haven't been able to sell something or I just need some quick cash. Better than not getting any offers at all.

[1337]

If we needed a thread everytime someone gets lowballed, then revscene would only have threads about being lowballed :rolleyes:
