Default Cannibals are coming out because of stocks and virus

Don't know how many out there are experiencing this, but ridiculous offers are abundant on many items....

They are just as bad as the idiots trying to get several times what they stuff is really worth. Both are easy to ignore.

I have a $249 BIN or Best Offer item I listed on eBay earlier this week - probably should sell for $175 - $200. I got a $10 offer on it yesterday.

I’m sure that was a joke. I doubt the offerer seriously thought you would accept.

It was an eBay ID with something like 250 feedback, so not a totally newbie. I just declined, but do people have nothing better to do with their time right now than submit offers of 5% of value?

You don't set auto-reject on super-low offers?

Couldn't the exact opposite be said? Since the Apocalypse could very well be at hand, and people don't want anything but staples such as food, water and toilet paper at the moment, wouldn't it be very stupid NOT to offer as little as possible for such a non-essential, bat-shit crazy item like a baseball card in this environment??

I believe most Non Auction Real Card Sale Prices will come down.

The god stuff won’t be sold, or won’t be sold cheap.....the meh so so stuff they everyone has or is easily available will come down.

Right. Suppose the national emergency gets really bad, for a long time. What's that card's intrinsic value? In other words, what's it worth as toilet paper?

This; is the easiest way to deal with lowballers. Occasionally, I'll look at the auto declines and get a good chuckle.

This is anecdotal and specific to T206. I have sold cards at full list and received reasonable offers since this black swan started (of course my prices are pretty reasonable to start with). No price deterioration at all.
