I agree with Ozfly and Tireguy that there is no specific
deffinition for low-ball offers. If I feel I have priced an
item fairly - considering condition and what similar items
are being listed at - and I receive an offer say 15% or more
below my asking price, I do consider that a low ball offer.
I rarely consider such offers, as in most cases the item I
have for sale has already been replaced with a better item.
And since I buy all my equipment for cash; I'm usually in
no big hurry to unload anything.
I've also had a number of truly low-ball offers from
dealers who are obviously looking to get some nice gear at
cut-rate prices. I have no problem letting them know they
can get it at their price when hell freezes over!
