Hi Delia
Thank you so much for the appraisal.
For consistency, could you please update your report to say circle not oval? As it's a round tray. I just don't want to confuse any potential buyers if I send them your report :)
Thank you.
Warm regards
Felicity
Absolutely and I've not only updated the appraisal but added "circular" to the heading so anyone else looking at this makes the same mistake - thank you for pointing it out and for working with us!
Hi Felicity,
I've listed this with an asking price of $700; you may get lower offers (everyone will be looking for a "deal") but you aren't obligated to accept any of them. If you want me to change the asking price just let me know.
Best,
Delia
Hi Delia,
