As a Buyer, you can make an Offer on (1) multiple listings from the same Seller (known as Bundled Deal) or (2) a single listing.
If you're making an Offer on a Bundled Deal:
Click on the "Add to Bundled Deal" button on the listing page to add the listing to your Bundled Deal cart, where you can continue to add listings from the same Seller.
Once your cart is ready, you can click on the cart icon and select Make Offer. Learn more about Bundled Deals here.
If you're making an Offer on a single listing:
Apart from cart function, you can also directly click on the “Make Offer/Proposal” button on the listing page, and select the 'Make an Offer' option in the pop-up.
