teacake Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I'm feeling very frustrated as I missed out on an eglu that was on a best offer sale, my offer price was rejected, and a day later the same price was accepted........ guess I need to save up for a new one then.

Old Speckled Hen Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Was it the very nearly new one that was up for £400? What did it go for in the end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teacake Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 it went for £350 which I thought was a great price, and I would have reoffered more but we went away at the end of the listing.... what do you think is a good price for a second hand one, I liked the fact that this was in great condition, does anyone have experience of buying second hand, what are the risks/benefits?

Old Speckled Hen Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I think they are generally overpriced on ebay, but that £350 sounds good especially as it had a run extension and they are expensive. People are daft and I know with bee stuff will pay more than getting it from Thornes Look out for buyer collect as these always go for less as there are fewer bidders....does that make sense? I inherited a second hand mark 1 and though it looked pants, it cleaned up a treat with a pressure hose. Still going strong three years later. PS I was looking at it for my in laws and 350 is what I would have paid but didn't bid in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplemaniacs Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I am looking for an eglu too, for my ex-batts that I plan to get. Keep looking for a bargain on ebay but some go for silly prices I was tempted by 10% off offer the other week for things that are pink in the omlet shop but I resisted as OH does not like pink. I may have to buy a new one if a bargian doesn't appear soon, fingers crossed Coco, glad you finally got your chair. Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
