    If you are listing with "Best Offer" you can set the listing up so it auto rejects anything under your min price so you can avoid all the crap offers

    I made an offer of 1/2 price on a new jacket and it was excepted, so I guess you have to try.

    Offering half the money a total piss take though.
    I've got a little harsh with piss takers of today.Offer me half and you 'll get just half.Offer sensibly then I may consider talking to you.
    It annoys me when certain races come to my shop and start bartering after I've done the work.That gets my goat up.It got that bad once I told his interpreter Tell him to pay up & go now.Do not to bring that muppet to my shop again.
    Mark you're not alone mate, "sensible offers considered"on your ads may help too.

    Often sell knitting/craft magazine's (for my mrs) list them at 99p. What pisses me off, is the amount of watchers at 99p and then they dont buy em for f*** sake its 99p

    sometimes people watch stuff to see what they sell for,or if they do sell.i do it a lot so i get a good idea of what stuff (especially if i have the same to sell) goes for.

    If it's something substantial, I like to strike up a conversation with the seller early, as it really bug's me when I'm bidding honestly and stuff gets sold before the end. But daft offers just waste everyone's time, and insult people.
