Im after a new pushchair for my youngest and have found two in my area, one finishes tomorrow and has no bids at 99p start, the one i really want starts at £13.99 and ends sunday,

I have already communicated with the second seller to ask a question but i would like to ask if they will end early/do a BIN, how can i word this without sounding rude ??

I was thinking of saying " I would prefer to purchase your pushchair, did you have a price you wanted to reach, can we come to some agreement" but it just sounds wrong

TIA

I think you may have been suckered in there Hintza.:p

Mishka, why not just be honest and say why you want the BIN? I have done this before when I wanted a top for a wedding and needed it quickly, seller was very nice about it. And I would say something like "Sorry to be a pain, but..." so they don't think you're being pushy.

Personally speaking, I get annoyed when people ask me for a BIN price - I think that they are hoping I will undervalue the item.

However, if you ask something along the lines of "I have been looking for one of these for a while, but I am going away tomorrow and would like to know if you have a BIN price that would secure the sale". Prove you have a valid reason for asking, and you are more likely to get a favourable response!

I would say, I am driving past your town on Saturday, any chance you have a price to end earlt, I could then collect Saturday....I did last week on a play house and got it at a bargain! The worst they can say is no!

Actually saved myself £25 because a seller refused a BIN offer from me, they must be gutted, I was willing to offer £30, they refused saying they like to let their auctions run and I won it for £5.19, imagine how happy I was and it's a fairly rare item too, It's Harry Potter based too so I was very surprised to get it that cheap
