Just curious, I've been using this both as a seller and a buyer a lot lately.
In my head, it means you've probably got 20-25% leeway at best to play with. I never go lower than that because I think the opportunity to discuss the price fades when you move into "insulting territory".
As a seller, I've had people request an 80% discount on items twice this week.
As a buyer, I've made two offers on items this month, both at the asking price less 20%, my counter offers have been 1) a 3% reduction and 2) a 2% reduction in the price.
Why even have "Make offer" if you're only going to kick off $10?
What's your mantra with the make offer?
