[QUOTE=G. McCormack]Why is it so inconvenient for you to make an offer?
You want to be in the biggest position of advantage possible, where transactions are concerned. Nothing wrong with that, unless it's coupled with an overarching sense of entitlement.
Making an offer puts you in a position of disadvantage...you don't have a place from which to wriggle the price down, and you don't have an instant idea whether or not you can get the piece. But thats just part of buying luxury items, you may not always be able to control every aspect of the deal.
This is a good reason not post an price and anyone is free to make an offer or not .
I don't see the problem doing it this way .
