Is it just me or does anyone else find this a really annoying question? I'm all for a bit of haggling, and we all like to get a better price than what is originally asked for. But doesn't the "What's the lowest you'll sell it for?" approach just reek of I can't be arsed? Surely the sellers intention is to maximise his sale, while the object of the buyer is to get the best deal? Shouldn't this trigger a sequence of silly offer, flat refual, less silly offer, polite rebuttal, sensible offer, thoughtful consideration of offer, then finally achieving a mutually satisfactory price all round, sweet.
A good sale leaves both parties happy, and both walk away feeling like they got a good deal, what is the world coming to when you can just bypass the negotiations and demand the lowest acceptable price? Frankly it's an insult. Moreover, who agrees to lower the asking price without even taking an offer? Nutters thats who, it's like dropping your pants for a mugger with nothing more dangerous than a benaner in his pocket.

Rant ends

We all like a bargain so asking that question saves pussy footing round and agreeing on a price.people know what hey want for something and if the price isn't to what people want to pay then tough luck

I didn't say that when I got the sc jim!

Just ignore it, if you got annoyed at all the arse holes in the world you would'nt last long, lets face it 95% of the population consists of complete bellends.

+1 for true talk!

It doesn't take much to p**s Dave off to be fair.

I'd say more like 100%.

I have put in the ad that "offers are welcome" but i think its really cheeky to make an offer without even seeing a vehicle, just isnt on. Guess i've invited them to make silly offers now ah well, the car cant live on my parents' lawn forever

I think We all are in 1 way or another, can't keep everybody happy, somebody somewhere is bound to think I am a bell end, same for all of us, therefore 100% of us are bell ends
