You know what, I had a different theory about the Best Offer on the auction. Maybe you're supposed to propose a higher price than the minimum bid in order to get the seller to end the auction before a bid is placed. Could be a way for eBay to force transactions to stay on eBay rather than off-eBay.

So you list a $1200 card for $99 and Best Offer. Someone offers $900 before a bid comes in. Now if you end the listing, eBay can charge the seller $90 since there was a valid offer on the card.
