Some dude, maybe a board member for all I know, is selling a card for $2100 BIN, with make an offer. I made three reasonable opening offers (starting at $1600) and all were immediately rejected. eBay then gave me the option to contact the buyer as I couldn't make any more bids. I asked what his bottom line was. As my last bid was $1800, it wasn't clear to me he was really willing to negotiate at all. He then came back and offered me a 1% discount off the BIN price if I acted quickly. Yes, he would gladly take an offer equal to or exceeding 99% of the BIN price. Sounds like someone was overcome with that old holiday spirit. And Happy Holidays to you my friend!!

man I feel bad when I can only take 10% off and consider not doing "Make an offer" on a card with so little room. Little did I know I'm killing it!
