Let's face it. Most people don't know how to negotiate. Most people don't know what the item they are trying to buy or sell is really worth. We all just have an idea of what we will take or what we will give. Even that is subject to change. I suggest using "firm" or "offer" depending on what you as a seller are comfortable with. And above all, let's not take all of this so personally.
At the end of the day....an item is worth what someone is willing to pay. The blue book is simply a guide.
