What is "low ball"

"no low ballers" merely suggests that the Seller lacks negotiating skills.

Believe it or not, there are people here who think you should pay 80% of retail for used gear with no manufacturer's warranty, then whine about lowballers if they get a more realistic offer.

I never understood why people get upset about low ballers. As a seller, just ignore, decline, accept, or counter.
I recently had a pair of speakers for sale here listed @ $1900. I got several offers for $1000, and one for $800 and seller pays shipping (it was listed as local PU only). I didn't get mad or cry. I didn't start a thread about these terrible people. It didn't hurt my feelings. I just declined. It ain't no big deal.(They sold to a local buyer for $1700.)

No lowballers...Jeez. C'mon man - Grow a pair!

I negotiated well enough to retire 9 years ago at 49. A lowballer or person that thinks that they are entitled to something even if they don't have the means should look elseware, or find a desparate seller. Sure, there are sellers that charge too much, but you should move on to someone else. Why give your money to them even if they come down to your price? I never give lowballers the time of day, unless they are asking to round down just a few bucks, but I try to give them a good deal from the start. If that's not good enough, then it's haves vs. have nots.

Well, Polk in the words of the incomparable "church lady" aka Dana Carvey, "Aren't we special???"
