Default A question of RCU etiquette

Looking to buy a B400.

Saw what seems to be a pretty good deal on the Buy & Sell section on this site.

He's asking $379 for a RTF B400 new in box with free shippping - better than anything I've seen on Ebay.

There is a button for "make an offer" - do you try and weasle another $20 off the asking price or is that poor form? If it said "buy now" I probably would, but "make an offer" is a whole different bag of worms -

Exactly - have no idea if this is legit or not, says he has two NIB.

LHS is asking $469 - if they were asking $389 would be all over it - can't even find them for less than $400 on Ebay.

If he doesn't accept your offer, no harm done.

As for reliablity, check his feedback, thats one of the reasons we ban classifieds from the discussion forums because of the built in tools for dispute resolution and feedback benefit everyone involved.
