Define "Lowball"

[Patronus]

Gables went out of business?

A couple of years ago. The building is now a shooting range with some guns and ammo sales.

I hadnt been in a while obviously, picked up some reloading stuff from them back when Chuckdog was still active on here which has been a long time.

some lowballer offered two stippled glocks plus cash from me for my mini gun. Kinda on the edge of lowball

I don't think that was a lowball, I can see the idiot mark on it. Everybody knows that drops the value to almost $0.

If you send a offer and never get a response. I'm sure you will figure out why.

Nothing personal.

If I send you a PM and you don't reply, then off to Ignore you will go. I really don't have any use for inconsiderate people.
Maybe it wasn't a lowball, but a reality check on pricing and value.

a new gun cost say 500,used its a 300 gun so 250 is lowball? oh wait this ODT,500 retail ,asking 750 used.so yes 250 would be lowball.bahahahahahahaha

If a gun cost $300 new what's it worth used?

I assume that everyone has internet access since we are buying and selling on a website. Look up what your item is going for and price accordingly. I don't care what you paid for it, what's it selling for now. We've all got stuck a time or two. When you are asking $100 over retail I won't even bother. If it's a fair offering price, 40-50% is lowballing to me but I'll still counter or at least say no thanks and let them bid against themselves.

I did that once (for a boat, that I didn't really want since it was a little bigger than I was looking for). I was absolutely stunned at what the guy came back with. Couldn't get the money out of my wallet fast enough.

Did that once on a pistol. Guy took my offer, agreed to drive to meet me at lunch, - I was on the hook.

What can you say?
