I think what this situation needs is some imagination.

I usually just reply with a no thanks to an obviously unfair offer or occasionally make a joke. assuming you meet the person half way between your values and the deal is still ridiculous, there is no point in bartering. as long as the initial offer is reasonable (albeit low), i'll haggle. my favorite thing here are the ads of the "W: newest or rare models CHEAP H: crap no one wanted last edition either" variety. just once i'd like to see someone post an ad looking to pay "TOP DOLLAR" for in print items, lol.

I'll pay "TOP DOLLAR" for stuff I want, but people need to be aware that "top dollar" in the current economy is well under half of MSRP.
