Agreed. If a price is fair I normally won't haggle much, although I've been known to work trades when possible. EBay will get you plenty of exposure, but then you have to deal with the annoying fees, etc.

I'm usually willing to entertain decent offers. But I really hate lowballers. Funny how people are though. They'll act like they're down to their last dime and plead with you to drop your price because they are in some kind of financial distress. If that was really the case, then why are they shopping for toys? :roll:

I had that happen here, then it was resold for what I was asking originally. That was the last time I dropped anything. Maybe its a respect/etiquette thing for me- another big annoyance for me is when you respond to a wanted ad like "PM sent" and someone else comes in behind you with the same, then another :lol:
