• If I'm at a garage sale and an elderly widow gives me a price that is criminally low on her husband's card collection (yeah, like I've ever been lucky enough to have that scenario unfold!!), I'd say, "No way! That would be ripping you off," and would up the price accordingly to something that reflects the true value of the cardboard.

• If there was a combo of these two, say an eBayer who had no clue what's going on and truly made a mistake (and is a nice person) listing it for what he/she did, I would contact them afterwards to help right the situation...which would allow me to sleep at night.
This is how I'd handle all of these situations as well, with one small catch on the last example. I'd make it right for the ebayer AFTER the item is in my hand. That way, less chance they back out.
