I would think eBay's overall rules (48 hours for response unless offer is rescinded) would trump your attempted modification of their rules via the messaging system. I am not sure why you'd think that, they are pretty clear about all conditions apply. It isn't a modifcation of the rules, it is in accordance with the rules which are clearly stated for reasons such as this. I would rescind in the morning if needed but if they accept after the coupon ends we all know buyers have the power on ebay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ride the Tiger Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 I usually keep a stash of BIN OBO items in my watched list for these sales but I was clear out of options this time. RaTS at least there will probably be another sale soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears that you may be correct https://www.ebay.com/help/buying/buy-now/making-best-offer?id=4019&st=3&pos=1&query=Making a Best Offer&context=9010_BUYER I am always leery of these big corporations like eBay, where what you're suggesting may be countermanded by some other deeply buried rule found elsewhere.

Thunder Agents 14 was $63 after best offer acceptance and coupon, but then had $7.70 shipping. Really happy because some of these Tower books are a biatch to locate in HG, and usually folks want double for them. Jimmy Olsen 126 was $54 after best offer acceptance and coupon, but then had $12.04 shipping. Really happy about this one, as the black cover makes it tough, and this issue is was a gaping hole in my later issue J.O. collection. Plus, just look at that cover - moon landing, butthurt Supes, etc. I had looked all day and into the night for a book. I would have jumped on that Thunder Agents if I had seen it. Nice pick-up! lizards2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
