Why people here low ball offers?

Every add I have placed people low ball me. It's insulting. I work hard at giving quality animals but soooo many of you low ball anything. It's tiresome. Almost to the point of not offering on this sight. I thought people here would understand the value of these animals. Do you think it's ok to low ball pricing on here? I don't mean negotiating ex. Selling an animal for $200 and get an offer of $75 shipped. Are you kidding me. How insulting. I get market value and an animal is only worth what someone is willing to pay but low balling here is ridiculous

I don't think it is necessarily designated to this site, have you ever listed on any other site?

I have used other sites with the same low balling. I expect it from non hero sites but not so much here. Boy was that assumption wrong.

I had one user here offer me $150 shipped for an animal and then when I responded he stated I can only offer you $75 because I took too long to respond (48 hours). That is less than a hatchling and this is a 2 year old adult. So I am expected to sell an animal for less than I bought it for? Get the f@#k out of here. Insulting

Unfortunately, no matter what you are selling, there will always be someone out to make a quick buck. Sometimes they get lucky and make a score. I don't think that it is right to say low balling here is any worse than anywhere else. I will be honest with you, I think "low ballers" target those who have low post counts, non paid subscriptions and low user ratings. I try to make it a point to rate everyone I deal with, whether it's a sell, trade or purchase.

I assume you are talking about the Tegu.?

I looked at both ads and I have some suggestions, which we can discuss through Pm if you prefer.
