Most cards I offer are straight BIN at or near market price. However, on items I choose to use the best offer option on, I will price above the market price (not 2x the price though) and gladly accept an offer at market or better.

Bottom line is you don't know the outcome until you send the offer.

+1 agree never hurts to offer what you feel is market price. But since they have a right to sell at what they want do not be upset if they either reject or counter with a higher offer
