If you came out and said this at first you would have saved yourself a lot of time and headache. Instead, you chose to take a chance to see if you could rip this guy off.
If I'm selling items in the tunnel, I already have a price in mind for my wares and I don't mind putting that price out there first. I'm not much of a haggler though. My prices are generally firm, but not steep and I never have these issues with buyers. Either they go for my price or they don't. You know, just like shopping almost anywhere outside of virtual elf sim.
Maybe I'm just playing devil's advocate here.. But if you didn't have a lot of time couldn't you just meet them at the bank?
All of these problems you're going on about could be fixed by you, but you blame the buyer instead. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] |
If my intention was to rip him off I wouldn't have told him what it was worth and what I would take for it once it was clear he was clueless what the item was worth 10 minutes after we began communicating.
He could have saved me time, by telling me up front that he had no idea what it was worth, and asking me how much I'd take for it, and/or what he was willing to pay for it. He obviously had an idea in his head, or he wouldn't have balked at the price I ended up throwing to him.
It goes both ways. I easily could have lied, and said "oh, it's worth 10k man, I will give you a deal for 8k though!" Just to see if he would do that. I did not do that. That would be trying to rip him off.
