One has to remember, when a seller has a ridiculous selling price on an e-bay listing, it is not always the buyer making the offer that is unreasonable if below 50% of asking. The buyer offer may be much more in the ballpark of market value than the seller asking price. Buyer isn't always the one in the wrong with these scenarios. I've done that a number of times, with my main intent being to stress to the seller that their asking price is way out of line. I have no delusions that they might actually accept my offer. Although I have seen best offers accepted at 25% of BIN price on occasion (when the seller knows they are shooting for the moon and agree to take just reaching the clouds instead).
