You see o.n.o. in British small ads, especially for a car, a bike, a sofa, or a flat. It stands for “or near offer” (some people read it “or nearest offer”). The seller names a price, then adds o.n.o. to say “I want about this much, but you can offer a little less and I may still say yes.” It is a polite, slightly old-fashioned classified-ad code, not a word you drop into spoken sentences. In conversation you would just say you are open to offers. American ads more often write OBO, “or best offer”, which is a bit more open: the seller may take the highest bid, not only a little under the asking price. Though actually the phrase belongs to paper notices and old listings; apps now have a button for “make an offer”, but British small ads still use o.n.o., and people still understand it. It does not mean “oh no”.
(英國售物廣告)可小議、接近此價亦可。台灣廣告比較常寫「可議」。
組成Abbreviation of or near offer (also understood as or nearest offer).
