On a card like this, don't let emotion get in the way of financial sense (unless, of course, you have so much money that financial sense doesn't matter for such a small amount).

This may work with some people. Personally anytime someone has done anything even close to this I instantly add them to my blocked list. IMHO there is not much worse when selling a card than to have someone try to convince me I need to sell my item to them for their price.

EDIT: I have no problem with an offer for less than my selling price. I just don't want some story that goes with it.
