Are you getting ridiculous offers from new members

thanks, I wasn't talking so much about just a low offer, they can offer what they want, but this adds in that I am a scam artist, that my prices are way out of line, that it must be a hoax, that I am no smarter than his horse, etc. AND he was registered under multiple names sending different variations of the above. I blocked him and Audiogon suspended him, but this is the first time I ever received anything like that on this site. Hope it is not a trend.

agree with Mr. Golf. Lowball is in the eye of the beholder. Some list items way over what the market is just to see it they can grab a sucker. I offer what it is worth to me. If the seller gets angry about my offer that is their problem. If I get what I consider a lowball offer I politely decline. Some of those turned into sales close to my asking price. Telling a low baller to go shove it accomplishes nothing.

if you think ridiculous = lowball then perhaps, but perhaps if you read the initial post you might have seen what I meant when I specifically mentioned trolls

I've been trading here for over 15 years and just recently I am getting stupid offers and comments on my listings from members who are fairly new, have no feedback, no discussions. Trolls

I followed up the next day with this which specifically mentions this is not about low ballers

that seems pretty clear to me that this was not about low offers since I specifically stated it was not about low offers

I don't know how this old post gained new traction, but it was never about low ball offers.

It was about trolls, people telling me I must be a crook because my price was too high, people telling me my item was crap and sounded like it. people who obviously had no interest in buying it, just want to attack me for listing it.
