Found a fish you like but want to propose a different price? Bettavaro’s offer feature lets you send a price proposal and a short message directly to the seller. Follow this guide to submit your offer and review the seller’s response.
Prepare your proposal
Sign in to your Bettavaro account and review the complete listing before sending an offer. Check the fish details, seller information, displayed price, available discount and any shipping or receiving information provided for the listing.
Eligible sellers can accept, reject or send a counteroffer. Sending an offer does not complete a purchase or reserve the fish.
Offer process
Detailed steps
Select a screenshot to view it at full size.
Browse available listings and choose a fish that interests you. Review the displayed price and any available seller discount before opening the full listing. Offers are available only on eligible fixed-price or offer-format listings that are available and in stock.
Select “View Details” to open the full listing. Review the fish information, photographs, seller profile, displayed price, rating information, description and any available discount before deciding whether to make an offer.
Go to the “Make an Offer” section and enter the price you would like the seller to consider. The field accepts a numeric amount greater than zero and the system rounds it to two decimal places in the listing currency.
Base your offer on the listing information and the price you are genuinely prepared to pay. The current form does not impose a percentage minimum or maximum, but the seller is not required to accept.
The message is required. Write between 2 and 5,000 characters to briefly explain your offer or ask the seller to consider your proposed price. Keep it clear, polite and relevant to the listing.
Hello, I’m interested in this fish. Would you consider my offer?
Check the price and message, then select “Send Offer.” Bettavaro creates an open offer thread, notifies the seller and opens the new conversation. Only one open or checkout-ready offer is allowed per buyer and listing.
Sending an offer is not the same as placing an order or completing payment. Do not proceed as though the fish has been purchased until the offer and purchase status are confirmed by Bettavaro.
Open My Offers or the relevant offer thread to review messages and status. The seller can accept, reject or send a counteroffer. If accepted, Bettavaro shows a checkout action at the agreed price with a 24-hour checkout window.
You may reply with another price or message while the offer remains active. An accepted offer still requires cart, checkout and successful payment confirmation.
