AgtX80 Posted July 18, 2008 Author Share Posted July 18, 2008 I payed £250 for the bov, an offer of £130 is a bit of an insult & the guy who made it knew it would be. No need. I dont think its acceptable to crash peoples ads. If you advertised your car & someone came to look at it, then some guy strolls up & tells the potential buyer that its overpriced & crap, come look at mine,would you be pleased about that?. Id chase the twt down the street. Its between me & the interested people, not people with so little to do that they browse ads for things they have no interest in buying. If i posted an ad & it was overpriced, surely the fact that i got no response would tell me it was. The retail price on the SSQV is £250 inc vat or thereabouts......my price is fair,a little optomistic maybe. I dont deserve criticism about that, im still making a loss. At the time i was after an SSQV import nic could only offer me £170 for a DIY weld on version. Plus, he only had 3 to sell how ever many months ago that thread was started. Hardly readily available. If he didnt have any & you were going to pay what i did for mine from a dealer, what im selling would be a decent alternative imo. I might just quit this ad, start a new one for just the exhaust. & get photos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its always worth trying your luck as you never know how the seller will respond. I have seen shockingly low offers accepted on here so dont take it personally.

SupraAyf Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 if you did this face to face youd get a fist in your face. You need to calm down a bit and keep taking the pills:Pling: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajazyasin Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 I agree with AgtX80 when it comes to thread smashing. If you are not interested in what he wants, dont bother posting. If you have a low ball offer, maybe its best to pm. Ive seen traders advertising complete engines at ridiculous prices and people saying... "what a great price", "its a steal at that". People would rather pay traders hundreds over the market value and knock a member down for trying to recoup his money on much cheaper parts. Dont worry about it bud, there are alot of keyboard warriors about:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
