I tend to skip by items without a price. In my experience, discussions with the seller are typically not productive. They typically go something like this:

Me: I see you're selling [card name] on the BST. How much are you asking for it?

Them: Yeah, it's really nice-looking, isn't it? Strong for the grade.

Me: It looks good to me, too. So, how much did you want for the card?

Them: I don't know. I've been considering selling this for a while. I haven't figured out a price yet. Why don't you make me an offer? The worst I can do is say no.

Me: Well, I'd be interested somewhere around [insert number slightly below what the card is currently selling for on eBay]

Them: blah, blah, blah, can't go that low, blah, blah, blah, this is really strong for the grade, blah, blah, blah, I was thinking more like [overly optimistic price]


Sorry, I've been down this path too many times. For me, it's about time...and not wanting to waste it. If you're offering something for sale, don't forget the part where you include a price. Not everyone enjoys negotiating. Believe it or not, some people find it tedious and decide to simply pass.
