"I will consider other offers but I will not respond to any low-ball offers, I will not piece out the collection or only sell the rare and desirable games, and I will not haggle." Um... I've got a few things listed and nearly every reply is the same. "What's the lowest you'll go on it?" That's not how price negotiation works. I list at $X, you offer a specific amount, then we go from there. |

I guess people think that it's how it works in real life :/ |

Half my collection is from craigslist lowballing. Seriously, what's wrong with asking? If I post an item on craigslist I pretty much expect lowball offers. |

And its going to take up space on the shelves. |
