I agree. It drives me crazy when I never hear back from someone, I rather know it's been sold then sit around wondering.

If you ask around and the price is fair then I believe you should pay what the person is asking, however if the item is really overpriced then ya I would haggle but I wouldn't want to really lowball the person and end up insulting them. Also I agree that offers should be made in PM's and not for everyone to see. I've been lucky so far in that everything we've sold, the person has paid what we agreed upon. I'd be really ****ed off (to the point were I'd probably say no) if the price was agreed upon at $100 and someone showed up with only $80.
