There are a lot of sellers that throw way above market prices out there for any number of reasons, arrogance, ego, greater fool, or just to show off their collection. Doesn't matter to me as a buyer. If we can come to terms we come to terms if not no harm no foul.

The only reason for supporting your offer with evidence is to try and convince the seller to accept your analysis and give you the item at your price. There is no other reason to do it; to me it is the equivalent of arguing balls and strikes. It is especially annoying when I get one of these emails via eBay because I have already stated that I am not interested: in effect the wannbe buyer either didn't bother to read the listing or decided to ignore what I said.
