What is "low ball"

I agree with Markpao... but you never know, $600.00 might just do it.

Mark, I would respond with a price near my bottom line. "I can take X including shipping and Paypal and no less." It takes about 20 seconds to respond, why should I ignore a potential customer no matter how low they start? Some people start very low looking for desperate sellers.

I'm not charging a paypal fee. If the buyer pays with a money order, I'll deduct what I would have paid paypal.

Polk, yes you are charging a PayPal fee to those who want to use it. If you charge $100 by money order and $103 if I use Paypal then you are charging a fee to use Paypal. Your logic is the same as the pizza places that have free delivery but give you a discount if you come pick it up. That is not free delivery.

Fair enough Herman. I guess you never know.

Herman, how am I charging 100.00 by money order? I'm deducting paypal after the fact. You don't make any sense.

I bought a Sony VPL100 RUBY 1080p projector here 3-4 yrs ago, the ad was for $2700 with 200hrs on original bulb w mount "no low ballers". I wrote him on how flexible he was, he asked me what my offer and would and I said 750.00 "no offense" he accepted it lol. So be polite, ask if its ok to make an offer and worst that can happen is no.
I get offers on ad's with no greeting, no introduction just a dollar amount that is often very low, those are bottom feeders as they combine rudeness with insulting offers to buy.
