Over the last couple of days, I have been trying to buy a brush grapple for my skid steer loader. On eBay, the asking price was $1349 and the listing was one of those that allowed a "Best Offer" to be made. I offered $1200. The seller counter-offered $1299. I countered his counter-offer with $1250. The seller countered with $1200. Go figure.

You should have countered with $1349 and see if he would go down even more!

I think the seller forgot that he was the seller and NOT the buyer!!! ....LOL
