What about rude buyers.....i was selling an item ...it was still brand new as i had just gotten it i didnt out a price as i wanted ppl to use their conscience this buyer had the nerve to write me telling me how much she was going to give me becos she saw it very cheap my question y didnt she buy it where she saw it cheap as u know big items either they dont ship em to fpo or they do with lot of money for shippin ...but anywho i was like r u serious i didnt even say how much i wanted so y r u practically arguing with me in an email about how much i should take from u and the worst thing about it someone gave me the amount i had in mind as she said it was costing her way much more to get it here but she was just givin it a shot and ended up givin me more sayin it wouldnt b fair as i was practically givin it away to b accepting wat she offered 

Wow. Some people are just...WOW. I don't know what else to say, lol. I had a situation where I was selling something pretty much brand new and someone Emailed me saying that someone else was going to sell their 'item' to them for $50 but they sold it out from underneath them so she'd give me $60 for mine which was listed $130. I laughed out loud and didn't even want to Email her back because of the attitude she had but I did and I just said no thanks. PEOPLE. (; 

I think the same person emailed me! I was selling a mirror and she said that another person on OYS was selling the same one for half of what I was selling mine for and then wanted it for that price because the other person's was sold. I usually take just about any offer, but I found her email kinda rude. 

LoL - Same here. I am good about lowering my prices. Sometimes though, I'll just ask what I would 'go down to' though and in that case I stay a little firm. That probably sounds a little rude, sorry if it does. But yeah, when it came to that lady and being rude - I don't know what she was thinking but it isn't like I desperately need the money so I am not going to jump on the first offer for less than half of what I am asking when I believe it is fairly priced anyway, you know? I mean, don't get me wrong we all could use the extra money but what I mean is that I don't make a living off of my OYS profits, lol. Wow, ramble...I apologize. The end. 

lol i understand wat u saying man i wished i know the emails to see if it was the same person but honestly i think she was really rude reguarless of her situation as i was really open to any offer as in my ad i said best offer so she had me wondering which chip off the world she came from if she is that dumb or desperate to get the item y she is acting so stupid .....but in the end i felt good as my buyer asked me if i was crazy to be open up for any offer for something so high in demand but like i said im fair so i like it when ppl use their conscience if they have any lol .....and even worst the same person wrote me for some free items but i totally ignored her cos i was like u r rude so let me give it to someone who wasnt 

That is too funny. It probably is the same woman. It's sometimes hard to read inflection in emails.. but her email was pretty straight forward. She lacked tact. Least she didn't ask me for it for free. I had someone do that to me before. I found it rather odd since I didn't even list it as free. 

I was asking 65.00 for a set of stools and a lady emailed me asking me if I would take 30.00 for them...that same lady emailed me before offering 10.00 for a radio flyer trike I was selling...I said no to her the first time and she insulted me. The second time (stools) I ignored her and she kept emailing me with a different story everytime...that she really couldn't pay that much but she really wanted them etc etc. 

It bugs me when I say my price is FIRM and people still ask for half the price.. I am like no, my price is firm, sorry. It is just a waste of my time, yknow? 

I kindly agreed to deliver something to a lady on Kadena and she just gave me the money and when I was going to give her the item she kind of ignore me and started talking to her coworkers....She had a "just put it there and leave" attitude. 

I honestly feel that is if someone does not put OBO they are asking for that amount and that is that. In terms of OBO I wish people would understand that doesn't mean ask me for the item at half price. I just had someone offer me 20.00 for 45.00 item that is in perfect shape. It's annoying. 

i kno right maybe the owners for this site needs to put an abbreviated chart to let them know the difference as a matter of fact im going to write them cos i dont know when firm becomes a negotiation as also sometimes u have already taken 1/2 off your item and still they bawling you down i had some brand new still in box/never opened kids toys selling that i purchased 1 for 25 plus shippin i basically said the most realistic offer will take it a buyer email me saying i have to take $4$ from her cos thats what its worth i was like where would u get it for that but i just ignored her 

It's amazing how many people are like that out there, really. They truly are wasting our time and then we don't answer them back because they are being ridiculous and we have had enough, they go vent and not on here either. They 'post an item' to say "DON'T BE RUDE ANSWER BACK" blah blah blah. It's like we're in high school all over again. 

i agree. it is or BEST offer, not or LOWEST offer... i agree.. when people say i can get that from ____ cheaper.. I say.. that's fine with me. If you want to get it somewhere else cheaper FINE. most of my prices are very reasonable.. If you get it cheaper good for you.. unfortunatley I am not one of those stores that will match the price for you & then give you a discount.. Sorry. And I don't mean that to be rude.. its just if you found it cheaper, why would you still want mine? Don't waste my time.. Asking 2 dollars off is one thing.. but trying to get half off is not happening. 

I have another story though. This lady was a potential buyer but I didn't receive a single Email from her until the item was sold. Unfortunately I had missed a day of checking/answering Emails because I don't live on the computer. Anyway, I told her that I was sorry and the item was already sold and sorry for not getting back to her sooner but I had just got her Emails. She goes into this long spill about how she had to take her husband to work so she could have their vehicle to come pick something up and how I caused a huge inconvenience for them...Now please explain why you would completely flip flop your days around to pick something up that you aren't even for sure if it is still available yet? Ugh... 

... maybe she should be shopping for another car?? I had someone who was supposed to meet me like 5 days after we had first emailed each other.. she was a buyer- and was supposed to buy like half my items.. So I asked her to email me the morning we were supposed to meet so that i knew we were still on. ( she said she couldnt give me her phone # because her hubby is strict) So.. I got an email from her the night before I was supposed to meet her, she tells me she will be there- tells me what kind of car they will be in.. Needless to say, I waited an HOUR for her.. nothing. I had my brother check my email, nothing.. had him email her asking if she was running late, no response.. havent heard from her since.. that would have to be my worst so far... 

yeah, i had a table and 2 stools for sale and she knew that it had 2 stools (they were pictured) and the price was $40...well when she got here she said "i thought you had 4 stools, will you take $30 for it" so i said yeah fine (i was kinda mad and just wanted her gone)....but yeah....some people 

My worst buyer ever actually purchased things from me twice (like a year apart oddly enough). She was just weird. The first time she came, she told me her name was something different then the second time she came ??? Then she proceeded to invite herself into my home, make herself comfortable on my couch, and comment on how dirty my house was. She also told me that my baby girl looked like a boy (she at 2 still has little hair :D). She also decided she wanted a tour of my house. I really have a hard time saying no and if I was more assertive I probably could have squashed the problem very early. I still get leery if anybody sounds like her on the phone when they are calling on an item ;). 

I'm usually really pleased when people email me saying: I'm interested in this & this & that, can you give me a better price? You shave a reasonable amount off, buyer agrees, even calls soon & APPEARS! VERSUS Buyer emails to say: Cut your price in half & deliver the thing to me in Kinser which is not all that near to Kadena~!! This particular buyer also emails you about at least 8-10 of your items haggling. When you finally just say OKAY for the sake of getting rid of stuff, buyer disappears. Then reappears to haggle about other items. A waste of TIME & finger EFFORT... LOL~ 

this lady keeps making ridiculous offers...her email address starts with de 

de & v is the next alphabet. First name starts with G! 

I didn't see her name but yes, v is the next. She offers half or less of what I'm asking and the insults me if I say no. 

You can see the name attached to the email address when she replies to your reply. It starts with G. However, she signs off with a name that starts with J. She is a flea marketer. 

Wow that same person wrote me already too and was offering me 20 for a bag of new clothes in which all items had tags so i was like 1 item cost 18 and i should take 20 im definitely not starving becos she was there blabbing how she had to pay 15 for a stand so i was saying that shouldnt b my concern cos u r selling other stuff too so she was there carrying on so my husband was like give them to her cos she needs them as she gave a sob story so i said hell no ill give them to ppl for free then so i took em hone and advertise em for free and gave it to a fam i thought needed it and the best part i never seen them posted for sale as im assuming she did make use of em 

but yeah she is rude man i feel like just saying her name out loud but i cant ......yeah she disrespects you if she cant get it for her price or get ur items 50% more less than it already is 

She does not even care to remember the email of the person that blew her off to her face. Rude with a bad memory or just really thick skin!
