Comments (7)Thank you, Leafy02 and Sweeby, for your replies. Sweeby, eBay automatically limits a best offer bid to 48 hours. There is even an automatic decline function that a seller can set if they have a minimum below which they will not entertain offers. I did some reading on the eBay forums and it seems that sellers have a wide variety of reasons for setting up a best offer option. Many of those reasons made no sense at all to me. In the past, I have had the same experience that Leafy did where the seller will either accept the offer, decline the offer automatically, or make a counter offer. I guess I just coincidentally happened onto two sellers who choose to ignore best offers that are below their target price or who don't ever check their offer sheets to see that a best offer has been made....See MoreBest memory foam mattress topper/seller?
Comments (11)Thank you all -- Geez, there is a world of info out there now...I had checked *some* threads here, but they were so-so...don't think I saw terri's thread. That link was great, walkin. Oddly enough, we decided to get a 1" Venus pad at overstock--I think they're there because Foamex went out of business--amazing discount. If we need any more thickness (I know 1" is very odd, but it's 8 lb. foam), we'll get another less dense pad for on top of it. Should be very interesting to see how it's different from what we have now. I'll keep the idea of the thick quilted mattress pad, tracey -- that might be a great way to address the heat issue. I also read on one of the gweb threads that if you put shelf liner under the pad, it will keep it from shifting around on the bed. Great! I have too much Ikea shelf liner I bought in the as-is section a few years ago -- so I know what I'll do with it now :)...See MoreWent to see a house without an agent, would the seller's agent expect
Comments (12)If the Listing Agent expected to be compensated, she/he should have talked to you about just that fact by asking you if you were represented, and if not, should have explained to you how it all works. IMO, since he/she did not then you are open to bring your own agent. Even if the Listing Agent is determined to be the Procuring Cause of the sale, it should not stop you from using the agent that you are comfortable with. Of course, as Denita says, explain to your agent what all has happened. The commission dispute should be between the two agents, not the buyer or seller. I have never been a fan of agents thinking that they deserve to be paid w/o doing the work. Buyers walking into an Open House, IMO, should not be automatically entitled to a commission from these buyers. Especially, if the Open House agent did not supply the Working With RE Agent Brochure and explain the types of agency relationship up front. Procuring Cause determinants will undergo a lot of changes over the next few years due to people shopping on line and the fact that geographical areas are expanding for agents....See Morefriedag
