Making a Best Offer

Best Offer lets you offer the seller a price you’re willing to pay for the item. The seller can accept or reject your offer. The offer is valid for 24 hours. If the seller doesn't respond within 24 hours, the offer will be rejected. 

The best offer is displayed on the product page. Users cannot give an offer lower than the best offer. If a higher offer is placed, the previous offer gets rejected automatically.

Best Offer is a great way to buy the item you've been looking for at a bargain price.

How to make a Best Offer

You can make a Best Offer on listings that have a Make Offer button. Once you've found an item you want to buy that accepts Best Offers, here's how to make your offer:

1. Choose Make Offer.
2. Enter your offer.
3. On the next page, you may be asked to confirm your offer. 
4. Select Send offer.

What happens after you make your offer

The seller has to decide whether to accept or reject your offer. If they don't respond to you within 24 hours, then your offer expires.

If the seller responds, they may:

• Accept your offer: Just like any other sale on Donnate, you're obliged to pay the amount you offered within 2 days. If you fail to pay, your offering privileges will be suspended unless you pay a default fee. For details, see our Unpaid item policy.
• Reject your offer: You can still make another one 

Can I cancel my Best Offer?

No. When you make a Best Offer, you're agreeing to buy the item if the seller accepts it. You should keep this in mind when you make a Best Offer to the seller. Otherwise, if you fail to pay the full price, you are required to pay a 5% default fee to be able to make an offer again.

When you've got your eye on something and have a certain price in mind, you can increase your chances of the seller accepting your offer by having a Best Offer strategy. Sellers who accept offers are flexible on price and generally take fair offers seriously.
