This is probably the single-most irritating and downright obnoxious and egocentric sellerism:

"Listening to offers"

Utter BS! If you really want to sell, put a fricking price on it! How hard is it to do that? Otherwise, you are just hoping some ignorant schmuck with more money than sense comes along to make you rich. It ought to be called entrapment, and illegal!
Ironically, when I put: "I am not interested in any offers or early auction ending unless I put in a Best Offer option. Please do not PM me asking for my "best price" or asking for an early end to the auction", that is when I get offers. Which is why I also write: "stupid messages are ignored, and nasty messages are ignored here and then mercilessly mocked on hobby chat boards."

One further new piece of annoyance (thanks eBay for giving sellers new harassment tools) is being bombarded with "seller offered a 4% discount" PMs on every overpriced item I happen to watch. Got three of them today offering 4%, 4% and 6% discounts. Gee, thanks. 4% off; maybe I will use the savings to eat out tonight. At McDonalds. Alone. Off the dollar menu.

This is how I do all my meals. I can

1) Go to a nice restaurant with a nice girl and spend a couple hundred dollars or

2) Eat off the McDonalds value menu or from the dumpster outside McDinalds alone, and spend the savings on cardboard pictures of athletic dead guys.

Easy choice
