I wish him the best and I hope he does well, but I feel very uncomfortable making an offer of $35 when the BIN is $200.

I know how you feel and some times I don't make a offer. BUT, sometimes it pays off to make the offer. I picked up a card just last week that was listed for $1250 and I offered $225 for it and he took it. That was fair market for the card. Three years ago I made an offer on a $12000 card that was listed for $32000. I offered $8500 and he took it. You never know when the seller is needing the money. The worse that can happen is they turn you down. If they have the balls to ask too much it's not going to bother me to ask fair market.
I would have never had a dated when I was younger if I had not asked.
