Best Offer is Droom’s one of exclusive pricing formats which gives the user a privilege to negotiate on a price with the seller. Users have the privilege to submit up to 5 pricing offers for every listing. This helps the user get a deal that suits his budget and guarantees buying satisfaction.
The Best Offer format is one of its kind when we take e-commerce into account and given the fact that the used car market is so unorganised, it helps the user make a price friendly and a satisfactory buy. At Droom, it has been our mission to make the used car market as favorable and transparent as it can get for our users. This led us to improvise the Best Offer deal and make the process more intuitive and user friendly.
So What is New?
The improvisation of the Best Offer deal starts with the simplification of the whole transaction process. Earlier, before a user could quote an offer for the seller, he/she was required to first pay the token amount on the listed price after which the user was able to offer a price to the seller. We found out that this is a point on the transaction cycle which discourages many buyers from submitting an offer as they do not want to shell out any money before a price has been decided by both the parties. This has been modified. Now the user does not need to pay the token amount anymore to submit a bid. If the user likes any listing under the Best Offer deals, he/she can now directly quote an offer to the seller. Upto 5 pricing bids can be offered per listing.
Once the seller accepts a particular offer, the buyer gets a notification via e-mail regarding the accepted offer. He/She then gets a 12 hours window to pay the token amount. Also during the 12 hour window, the listing shall be deactivated from our website so that no other offer can be made to the seller on the same listing. We believe this will make the transaction more reliable and satisfactory for the user as he/she is not expected to pay any amount before he/she gets a suitable deal.
