<p>[QUOTE="fiatfiasco, post: 1904321, member: 67957"]You said nothing wrong OP. If he has a Best Offer option listed, you can submit that however you want, even if it is in the form of a question. If the seller is offended, then he shouldn't list as a Best Offer listing, or, set an auto-decline. </p><p><br /></p><p>I would bet that not one of my offers has ever been accepted, but it was my accepting their counter-offer to that lowball offer I made that closed the deal. I always make them come down. Its a technique, it works. For example, seller has an item listed at $500. I offer $175 with a message that says, "please accept or counter with your rock bottom final offer and I will pay within 30secs if agreeable", he counters at $380, I accept. I love buying on eBay, because for most coins, there are a few that fit my criteria, and I will chew through all 3 allowed offers on multiple listings until I crack the seller and get a deal. I don't buy a coin unless I get a significant deal. Would I want to sell a coin to me? Not really.
