<p>[QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 2682458, member: 46237"]I don't make eBay offers based on percentages of the BIN. I make them based on what a fair price is. Some sellers inflate their prices thinking that having a best offer option listed equates to advertising that you will accept less money. They aren't entirely wrong in thinking that, but sometimes it's way off and you see a $15 coin listed as $150 or best offer. If I'm interested, I'll offer $15. Maybe they're fishing, but maybe they don't know the fair market value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sometimes the prices are already fair though. I've bought many best offer auctions at the listed BIN without making an offer. As a seller, I would never block someone for making a lowball offer. That's nuts. If you choose to accept offers, then be prepared to get offers you don't like. You just click decline. That's what it's there for.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
