Making an offer on an item

You can make an offer on pre-loved listings from private sellers, giving you the chance to negotiate a better price. Products from bike shops sell at the shop's price.

How to make an offer

1. Find an item you're interested in
2. Click the "Make an offer" button on the product page
3. Enter your offer amount
4. Optionally add a message to the seller
5. Submit your offer

What happens next

• The seller will be notified of your offer
• They can accept, reject, or counter your offer
• An offer expires after 7 days if the seller doesn't respond
• You'll receive a notification when the seller responds

Counter offers

• If the seller counters, you'll see their new price
• You can accept, reject, or counter again
• Each counter offer gives the other person another 7 days to respond
• This process can continue until you reach an agreement

Tips for successful offers

• Research similar items to make a fair offer
• Keep your offer reasonable (10–20% below asking is typical)
• Be polite in your message to the seller
• Respond quickly to counter offers to show you're serious

When offers are accepted

• You have 48 hours to pay
• The item is held for you while you pay
• If you don't pay in time, the offer expires and the item goes back on sale
