What to do with very low offer on an item for sale
I am pretty new to selling on Audiogon and with a component I have received an offer of 25% of the price; I had chosen a price, including shipping, at the low end of what I have seen on HiFi shark.
If someone with more experience than I could help; do I ignore it or come back with a sensible (10% perhaps) discount on my price.
Thanks for advice

@devinplombier Agreed! I let him know that. Though I told him he wasted his time, "Einstein" asked if he could see the unit before he left. |
I respond to all offers, and if the offer is too low, I simply decline the offer. I try to get a sense of the ballpark for an item by recent sales. I don't mind giving someone a great deal as once I decide to sell, I am a motivated seller, but I will and do hold out for a fair price, I don't think I have ever had anything for sale for more than a few weeks before it sold satisfactorily. I also think it's so much easier to sell now than it was decades past. I am in the US and have sold a number of items outside of the US. |
