Ha here is one for the books, got to give them 10 out of 10 for ingenuity

Hi, this is in concern to your best offer option you have on this item. If I was to receive this item at half price of less I would then give both this seller and item a great review. I would also give both a 5/5 rating regardless of the quality of this item after the purchase. I can send you a copy of the review that I would write in advance if you like. Please think this through. Thanks.

I just recieved a classic message earlier this evening. It wasnt attached to any listing and read as follows, caps included. ( without the * though )

 

" I WANTED THAT F***KING BOOK."

Ha replied to that buyer, if i could get any brand new item for half or less price i would give it a rave review, ie fridge, washing machine, TV, computer, Car maybe a new house even.

Lyndal not really one for the party list, as only has purchase feedback history of 13, has never left a neg or nut for any seller, as a matter of fact has never left any feedback for any seller at all.

Which suggests one of two things (assuming this is not the first time they have sent a similar message, anyway)... Their approach never works, or they don't follow through on their promises.

 

I'd gamble a few bucks on the latter, just based on the fact that every buyer I've ever had who rabbitted on about the positive feedback I'd get if I did this, that or the other, never left anything at all. (I'm not the type to jump through hoops, in fact I'm often inclined to do the opposite of what the buyer is suggesting when they're rude in their approach, just because I have a contrarian streak Smiley LOL, but some of the stuff they asked for was already done / par for the course). 

 

I wouldn't block someone for attempting to haggle on a best offer item, but to be honest I would block them if they approached things like that, as I'd actually find it insulting (JMHO). 

 

@chameleon, that is a huge flaw with eBay's message system - the buyer would have sent the message from the ended item, but because it's an ended listing, there won;t be any reference to the item at all. No idea why they have it that way - when I ran auctions, I would often get messages asking me if I'll relist "this item", but always had to ask them what item they meant. >_> (I'd block that buyer, too - but my tolerance level for that sort of thing is kinda maxed out at the moment).
