Make an Offer

Not every buyer wants to wait for an auction to end, and not every item sells at its asking price. PHP Bid 2.0 adds a complete Make an Offer system, the feature that made the "Best Offer" option on the biggest marketplaces so popular.

Make an Offer

Negotiation Sells Items That Would Otherwise Stay Online

An item without bids is a lost sale for the seller and a lost commission for you. Make an Offer turns hesitant visitors into buyers: they see "Accepts offers" on the lot page, propose a price with a short message, and the seller gets an e-mail and a badge in the members area.

The seller sees the offer as a percentage of the asking price together with the buyer's rating, and answers in one click: accept, decline, or counter with a better price. The buyer then accepts or declines the counter offer from "My offers". Every step is logged and notified.

An accepted offer is a real sale: the item closes, the other offers expire, the buyer gets the payment details, and your commission and buyer's premium invoices are created automatically. Limits per buyer and banned-word checks keep the system clean.
