I have nothing against being cautious and buying new tires just in case. It's your statement about adjusting the offered price for replacing what may be perfectly good tires. But if a buyer wants me to take $2500 off my price because he doesn't like my 2 year old tires with 7000 miles on them, I'd tell him to take a flying leap. If he wants to throw his money away fine, but don't expect me to pay for his foolishness.
That is why it is called a negotiation. Do you really think I would tell you why I am offering less than your asking price. I offer, you either accept or I walk. No harm done.
Only a fool would pay someone's full asking price. The last used coach that I bought cost the owner $9000 more than I gave him that he had to pay to clear his loan.
You saw how well it worked for the OP with the three year old tires.
