I guess that depends how riduculous the Buy It Now price is, right?
Well said.

I don't believe there is a level that constitutes ridiculous; that's why ebay has the tools in place to manage offers. I think it works fairly well. For me it also depends on the item. A less common piece will usually have a higher threshold. For example, a George Burke photo vs. a Rollie Fingers rookie card.

Remember, this is pretty much a free market with supply and demand establishing the pricing level. Use the tools, be polite, and transactions will transact. Just my .02
