Just remember folks, "best offer" REALLY means "BEST offer". It does not mean that the seller has to settle for an offer that is below yet close to their asking price, especially if someone offers MORE than asking price. That would obviously be the "best" offer that they could get.
If you really want something and you know that it is marked well below market value, offer the seller just a bit more than what they were asking. This happened to me ONE time and i learned my lesson well. The next time a situation like that came along, i offered the seller 25% more than what they were asking and i ended up with the item. This happened even though the seller had received a dozen different offers to pay full asking price prior to my email. The fact that the item was worth at least four times what i ended paying for it was also a great motivator in not being cheap about it : ) Sean
