So, I saw a great thing on Offerup the other day which was a Kitchen aid stand mixer with attachments for 25 dollars. Normally, I wouldn't buy something like that secondhand, but if you know anything about the brand, they are pretty high end appliances, and normally something like that is hundreds of dollars. I sent a message to the person..and of course since it was an amazing deal it had already been purchased. The thing is, when you see something great..rather than pondering it..or asking questions..I think it is important to grab it. Have you ever missed a great deal by not seeing it in time, or hesitating too long?

Oh bummer on missing that great deal
My mom bought me a kitchen aid mixer when I was still I high school. I thought it was dumb because I couldn't use it in her small house so I had to wait to get out on my own. Then once out on my own I had so many things I would have had to bought that she gave me as gifts so I was really happy finally about this gifts she had given me when I was young. I have never heard of OfferUp. Is it a website or a Facebook local group?

I have it as an app. I think they have a website, and FB presence though.

@snowy22315 besides eBay and Amazon I only buy used things from people on the local sale group that I can meet up with.

I don't know how long it was on there butbi might have wasted valuable time by asking questions.

I think you almost have too. I also saw some really low cost chromebooks and didn't buy them...and they had windows 10. I don't really need a chromebook but for 56 dollars i would buy one!

Well I can very well relate to this. Sometimes when I add items in wishlist in online shopping apps I don't buy them sometimes at that time becase of less savings but then after some days I come back to finally purchase it the prices tend to have risen up a lot or my size or product becomes out of stock.

Yes, that is one of the frustrations of shopping online.

Often I buy something in the online shop that makes me doubt, I had time to think the item I bought will not reach the destination

I recently missed a good deal with the phone I just bought at the beginning of November it was like 139 dollars and when I bought it it was nearing 200. It is still better than the original price of 239 but still would have been nice. Thankfully I am not a person who has buyers remorse, I look up everything and get things when I feel confident enough. Or I sometimes just like to say, "eff it" and get it haha

I missed the best prices on the Echo Dot and Smart Plug, by not buying them Cyber Monday.
