Current Events > Is it bad form to take a higher offer on Facebook marketplace if another has dib

(+) Yeah! (+)

I mustve priced my stuff too low because Im getting hammered with people asking if its available, though I just arranged for someone to come pick up on thursday

if someone is willing to pay more or pick up sooner is it rude to take it? Or is business business

I'd probably follow through with original deal so I don't feel like a shitty person but you do you boo

how i feel about dibs

I tend not to walk back agreements, it always sucks when people do it to me.

This. Don't walk it back. You'll get a bad rep and it's not good to do to people. Price stuff a bit higher or wait a bit longer next time.

So you wanted someone to justify your shitty second thoughts

Yes it is bad form.

That said, fuck it. Tell dude you got a better offer, but you'll give him a chance to one up as a courtesy.

Eh, I get it. Sometimes I think to myself "I should do what's best for me." But then I realize the peace I get from not wronging people is worth the moderate amount of dollars or time I get.

In an environment where people are shitty to me, I'm much more selfish.

What are you selling, what is the price you agreed to and what is the price youre considering selling for?

Its an old (~9+ years) chair and love seat combo that I myself got used that Im selling for $100

I originally got the full set (sofa, loveseat and chair) for $100 so Im not losing anything and mostly I just want to get rid of it

but Im getting way more interest than I expected
