I've had the complete opposite happen. It's happened twice but the first time it was only like a $10 difference. So there was a modern card I wanted for a front color run. The seller listed the card as an auction with a best offer. He started the auction I think at 99 cents. I made an offer of $200 that lasted for 48 hours. I got no response from the seller and the 48 hours ran out and the card still had no bids. So a day passed and still no bids. So I made a second offer for $200 again for 48 hours. Still no response but then 40 hours into my second offer, someone placed a bid, so it canceled my offer. So it's already 5 days into a 7 day auction. I placed a last second bid of $150 on the card and won it for $90. I'm sure the seller was not feeling too happy while packaging up the card to send to me. I didn't feel bad about the situation because I made 2 very fair offers that I felt the card was worth, based on similar card sales.
