I've got an item for sale on Gumtree.
It was on for £30. I was asked what was my lowest price. I replied £25. I was then offered £20.
So, which part of 'lowest price' wasn't clear?
Is it necessary to go the £29, £28, £27.50.......route to get to your lowest figure, or do most people believe you when you give your lowest figure?
Alternative strategies?
One friend says that in these circumstances the conversation goes roughly: What will you take? £25 Take £20 Price is now £26.....
Never tried this, but I might next time.
Cheers
