Got my car on pistonheads and just received this email.

hey mate i could give you £900 as thats the max i have if you delivered to me in stafford , staffordshire , no need to view as it would be a project for me , let me know thanks

Its £550 under the asking price and wants it delivered

I understand making offers and im more that willing to move on the price but who would entertain an offer like that

If he has no need to view as it's a project you could just strip the whole thing and deliver the shell for £900

I hate people like this too!

as much as i hate this, you don't try, you don't get.

he probably said 900 so you'd reply saying 1200.

Just from the email the sender sounds like someone who would annoy me

I'll just leave it and wait for more interest.

Ha, I had an offer on my Corsa a week after I'd sold it :/ of £450 which was £200 under the asking price. I told him the cars already gone and no way would I have accepted that offer!
My Corsa was in pretty good condition with low mileage.

£200 under isnt that bad! And like already said might as well chance it!

But if haggling i find it MUCH better to of looked at the car, got a feel for it and know its worth rather than emailing people low offers, just pisses sellers off. Plus if you turn up with the cash in your hand most people are willing to neogotiate!
