You perceived it as if he preferred not to make a sell. Perhaps he had more money into the boxes than your offer amount and he didn't want to lose money?

Just because somebody doesn't want to sell at a certain price doesn't mean they don't want to make a sale. If I walk into the Toyota dealership and offer them $20K on the new Camry that they have marked at $29K, it's not fair for me to say, "They preferred to not make a sale" when they turn down my offer.

On a side note, D & A has the same boxes for $69.95, so his price seems to be in line with what other dealers are charging.
