I also sent a low-ball offer once, just because I honestly didn't know the value. I don't remember where it started and where it ended up, but I am sensitive to the fact that sometimes people just don't know.

When I talk about an irritation factor I think of it as starting at way less than half the value - when it's somewhere around 25-33% or lower. At that point it's a bit harder to think someone honestly didn't know.

At half or better, or even slightly less, there's benefit of the doubt. Below that I'm irritated. I still am pretty polite, but if it happened more than once or twice with the same person (or it was just the right dang day), that might stop.

And Cobby ... GRRR. lolol. Funny post. No, it wasn't only worth $35. Actually, I guess I'm naive because $120 was pretty close and I didn't really bump up the BIN much.
