Heritage Offers (BIN or Offer) anyone actually won this way?
 

I made an offer on a particularly tough T206 this week (sold in 2017) using Heritage's offer button. I'm not even sure if this seller still has the card but no other sales logged on PSA cert. Has anyone ever won an item through offers or BIN?

I wonder how often people even see them. I was searching my email for "heritage" and it showed me a few of these that had gone to my junk folder. I wouldn't have been interested anyway, but I never even saw them.

That's...good to know!

I am (was) actively trying to negotiate. I wish the BIN came with the option to message the seller as well.

I sold one this way last year, just as prices of NBA HOF RCs were really starting to take off and before I realized it. Oops.

I'm getting 3-4 offers a week through Heritage. Dudes offering a 20% premium over what I paid for a Goudey Ruth in 2014. Thankfully the Reject Instantly button is not hard to find.

I won my Curtis Ireland example of Elmer Miller this way. Definitely overpaid but it was a bucket list card for me.

Complete and utter waste of time.

I have received two Heritage offers in recent weeks on high end cards I bought at Heritage 3-5 years ago. They have appreciated a lot. In recent months they have apparently appreciated to a staggering degree. Both of the offers I got were like $5000 more than I paid three, four years ago.

I guess the offeror is taking a shot that I just woke up from a deep sleep or comatose state and have no idea what's happened with high end collectibles since 2016.

And for this service of bringing me an absurd low ball offer I am expected to pay Heritage pretty handsomely, further cutting into the absurd offer.

I’ve received offers on some type I Ruth photos I won a couple of years ago. A couple hundred more than what I paid but nothing that would make me want to sell them.

I got 2 offers for my 51 Bowman Mays RC that i won back in 2016.
I couldnt hit the 'reject' button so fast

I’ve been sending solid offers on some stuff and they aren’t even getting viewed...3 business days and it will auto cancel.

I had one guy who was quick responding but we couldn’t make a deal

I've made several, of what I thought, were very legitimate offers. Probably about ten times. Nine times the offer expired with no response and one just instant decline. At least the owner was nice enough to reply.

Purchased a Shepard Fairy fine art piece via Heritage offer. Worked great

It has worked great for me as both a seller and buyer. A very nice feature, IMHO.

On both sides of this:

As a winner I saw last year in my email someone made me an offer on a lot I won a few years back, I had no intention of selling so just ignored it, but the email was in my main inbox

As someone who has submitted an offer, I offered on two lots I lost out on that ended the first day as I was making a run on an item ending on the 2nd day...didnt win that so went and made offers. They were responded to and refused promptly. I did not look into the fine details of the Make an Offer payout for the buyer, just made what I thought was a reasonable offer immediately after the auctions were over and items not even shipped out yet hoping to score mainly on buyers remorse...didnt work so might make another higher offer now.

I like this option and wished REA had the same thing.

I'm with a lot of you guys who get them every couple weeks. The offers are about half of what they currently sell for. The only success was when I picked up a Ramly Johnson 2-3 years ago and someone offered me $1400 over what I paid within 10 hours of winning it. Heritage still had it in hand. Win, win

Same experience here on receiving offers: usually end up in junk folder and the they are low-ball ones.

I've rejected offers, negotiated for a better price, and also accepted one offer immediately (it seemed very high at the time, now who knows?).

If the low ball offers get too annoying, you can opt out for all your items by going to My Collection, clicking on All, and selecting the action "Not Taking Offers". You can also also opt out on an individual item or just set a very high minimum offer (be careful not to set a Buy Now price if you want to receive offers starting at that price, not sell at that price).

As for REA, I vaguely remembered that they had instituted this option (I thought I read about it in one of their emails), but if they have, it is not immediately clear on their website. Maybe you have to ask them to contact the buyer rather than doing it through a one-click option.

That seems to be incentive enough for winners to allow the offers. HA makes another 10% if they get a deep-pocketed buyer who just lost a bidding war. Winner is handed cash.

The card I offered on received an offer within 24 hours, then none for over three years until mine.

In your exact scenario, I presume you have to pay the invoice, then receive a HA payment with the offer accepted juice and cost of the card?

To the person who is making the (below market) offer for my 1927 York Ruth on Heritage, its not for sale...

Update - your second offer was better,,,, but still not for sale..

I am getting bombarded with offers on my 52 Topps Mantle PSA 6
I am holding out for $222,222 (net $200K)
Heritage won't budge on the 10% for doing nothing
I'll get my price

My offers I am receiving on my items are probably going to spam. Guess one less nuisance.

I've made quite a few offers over the years. Some on the lower end, but many fairly strong offers. I only made a deal once, but it was an item I really wanted and was not finding anywhere else, so I was happy to have had the option.

I only have 3 cards on the site but I've received 2 offers in the last week. First offers ever...I guess it tells you how hot the market is.

Hi,

I have used it several times to get cards I wanted they were not out on the market. The offer button is good but sometimes the offer needs to be really high sometimes above market value to get the deal done especially with the 10% taken buy HA. That sometimes is a real killer especially when taxes is added on top of that so for place like New York it is 10% plus 8.65%.
Plus if past offers were made and rejected the number keeps going up and is sometimes also results in above market value.

It's cool when you bought a card a few years ago for $25,000, it sold last night for $165,000, and you wake up to an offer to buy it for $32,000. Real good use of everyone's time. Useful service.

You are correct. Unfortunately I have seen that also. They offer and current prices do not sync up and many people that we are fools and do not realize the current market value
