It's about the only time I will lowball somebody if I'm actually interested in the item. If they can't be bothered to list a price, I will tell them what I think it's worth. Sometimes they say sure, most times the get all pissy with me, and I send them a link to ebay, and tell them to go have a good time with their self.

At least is "please contact", presumably he'll tell you the price. What I despise the the "make an offer". Negotiating decorum is he who enters the market, positions himself on price first.

If I'm feeling nasty and childish, I'll write and say. "It never seems to work out buying from someone who doesn't know the what it's worth, let me know when you figure it out" Which of course follows with protestations "I know what it's worth!". Well then why @#$&* don't you say so and quit wasting everyone's time!
