I couldn't agree more with everything said. I talk offers all the time in messages on non offer items. When an item is high, I don't mind shooting a low ball. Most of my offers besides item condition are my budget, reflection of asking price, comparable sale prices, and the seller or terms.
I've learned my lesson the hard way as a seller and watchers. I'm into watches too. I had one for sale that had tons of watchers pretty quick. I had an offer made, rejected it, and got into negotions. I didn't sell it for his reasonable offer becuase of all the watchers and honestly didn't really want to sell it but should. Many auctions, offers, and watchers later I sold it for not much more than the first offer. In the end the buyer was more than happy, but I would have preferred not to deal with all the watchers in between.
I watch a lot of auctions for various reasons and only a few of them I actually buy. The ones I want to buy rotate order of importance of what I'm willing to buy today or hold off until another day.
Hell there's a jacket still listed 6 months later from a seller that we were at a deal but he wouldn't budge on his 3x the shipping cost. Guess what, I'm still a watcher. Lol
