What the fk does this even mean?

have you forgotten how buying st works, you utter cock breathed mouth breathing, st for brained Puppy murder. you don't even make any fking sense as my best price is a fking million sterling, you fking idiot.

Make a fking offer, it even says make an offer on the fking advert. so don't fking ask me what 'my best price' is you fking idiot.

'Would you take a PX' What the fk is it, if its so st you cant tell me strait away? a rusty inter galactic 1.1 Polo? Now I am going to be disappointed if its anything but, you fking pink eyed moron.

So now I have to type out a polite email that says absolutely fk all because you haven't furnished me with any facts? I am not going to tell you what I will accept am I, you utter tit. You make an offer of what you think its worth, and I say yes or no according to the percentage of the asking price you intend to pay. that's how it works. it has worked like this for century's.

I blame Thatcher, if only she hadn't taken their milk away.

Rant over

Sorry PH just really gets my goat.

I thought the best price line was another way of saying how low will you go. So there is possibly a price on the advert, but the best price gang want to see what he will take for it.

Usually done before someone even views the car, or perhaps even when the guy answers the phone as the first words the seller hears.

I concur, this pissed me off too. The phrase "what's (or should that be WOTS? wink) your best price?" annoys me, it doesn't even make any sense. If they phrased it as "If I made you an offer now, what is the lowest amount you'd accept" I'd be able to answer it, although I'd still rather not and rather you paid the asking price biggrin

I agree with everything you say OP.

I had some cretin ask me whats the lowest price I would go to, he then offerd 1500 for my car that I had avertised for £3700.

He actually meant it even though I stated in my advert that I would not give the car away & only serious enquiries please contact me!

He got stty with me & told me that the car was crap & only worth that yet he hadn't even looked at it.

I couldn't help it - I knew someone had to say it! Sorry. I agree with the topic of your rant though.

It's annoying I agree, but if you tell him you will ONLY drop £200 or so, at least when he/she comes to view you can stick to your guns and tell them no matter what else they don't like or try to point out that is the final price so no more haggling.

If they are asking you what's your best price... they probably aren't that keen a buyer.

The country is full of chancers and unfortunately for you they fancied your car for a bargain price.
I do a similar thing but I try to not be as insulting when I offer. Whats the point in spending £9500 on an Evo when in a fee days time I can have that car for £7500? You get to sense if they need to sell, if the car is Sorn or insured etc.

Wouldn't dyslexia mean you spell "there" wrongly rather than just got "their" and "there" confused?.
Any way back to the Op, people just say what's the best price as they probably don't have decent negotiation skills or are lazy, personally I'd go with lazy.

What for a used car, so it's not a fixed price, it's a starting point.
