Is there really another way of saying it that won't make them try again? Not that I can come up with. I think at that point, it's your choice to block them or not. They don't wish to pay your price and you don't wish to keep hearing their lower offers. They will likely continue to try this with your other offerings, so it's up to you if you want to hear more from them or not. You were already clear twice: once in your description and again very directly.

In each of my listings, I point out that the price is firm.
Even with this firm pricing statement in each listing, I still receive offers, several a day in some cases. Most of my responses to these offers are typically along the lines of: "As mentioned up front in the listing, prices are firm. Thanks."
For a while, I simply responded with "no thanks" on the first offer, however that response would inevitably lead to a follow-up offer. On the follow-up offer, I then would go back and point out the pricing is firm and noted up front in the lising
The number of NASTY responses I receive back just amazes me. At least half of the responses end up with the user blocked for their nastiness.
So, with all that said, what is a polite response (that will not lead to another pricing query question) to a user who sends over an unsolicited offer?
