How do you handle a low ball offer?

Jim, I don't sell many cards but I presume that the equally annoying obverse is when I see a card on BST which recently sold either on ebay or another auction for half the price. With such vehicles as VCP, my eyes, etc. I am capable of determining pretty quickly what the subject card is worth and being BSed can be tiresome.

I suppose in your case I'd simply say no. What offends me is when the would-be buyer keeps on barely upping the lowball offer as if upping it by a few dollars each time -- still well below what the card is worth -- will somehow trigger my brain into a selling frenzy despite the obvious reality that the card is worth more.
