Ya know - unless it's something I have a definate price I must get in return sometimes I'll ask "make me an offer" and at least for me it just never, ever seems to work. Why I continue to offer items for sale on message boards is beyond me. I recently advertised the 125M parts for sale I truly would have been happy with 20$ for that seat and I had 10$ offers or when I said I'd like 20$ and 10$ to ship no one had the courtesy to email me back. I wanted 25$ for a CDI, coil, regulator, starter and harness complete and had 10$ offers - were those unfair prices??. I answer other peoples adds for "make me an offer" all the time and sometimes we come to an agreement and other times we can't but I always try and say thank you anyway but that is too much. I ended up getting 30$ for the electrical and 56$ for the seat on EBAY which was way too much but not in my control. I ended up with about 250$ for a bunch of parts I would have sold for 100$. I'm not complaining it's just that make me an offer seems like a poor choice for me.
I even had a member ask me about a certain part after I had a couple of bad experiences with selling the125 parts and I explained it would all end up on EBAY because me and classifieds just don't seem to work. A few days later I felt bad about it and PM'd him and said you can have the parts for free and if the other part doesn't sell on EBAY i"ll give you that too. I asked 5$ to cover the shipping for the stuff and never got so much as a return email or PM????

.....your not the only one man...... no offence to anyone on here, but it seems like whenever they got something for sale they wont let it go unless its a top dollar price....but as soon as they need something they wanna pay you with the change in the bottom of there pocket instead of opening there wallet..........of course, there is alot of guys on here that are great businessmen, i have had alot of good deals on here, but i have also have some bad deals too.....my inbox right now has about 30-40 e-mails from people that wanted something and i reply to them, and i never hear back so they just leave me hanging....most guys on here are good about selling and buying though, its just getting stuff that they wanna buy.......right now i'm waiting on a part i paid for over a month ago and it still hasnt made its way to my house :?
