Doesn't matter if it was fair or not, buyer didn't accept it.

Offer more or move on.

I wouldn't drive 9 hours to pick up a Road Kings for free. What if you show up and they sold it to someone else? What if you show up and it's still a Road Kings?

Absolute bottom of the barrel System 11 (Though I've never played Millionaire). The best part of the game is that the bonus countdown sound will momentarily make you think you are playing a High Speed.

No point in a catty back and forth with this idiot I'd just move on with my life.

Quoted from Archytas:

I just think it's hilarious he would rather dump it than take $200. What an idiot.

He's full of shit, you can't take anything idiots like that say at face value.

The proper way to deal with guys like that is so "Ok, thanks for the feedback. If you have no luck selling it please get back to me later." This used to work a lot for me in the old days...a couple months later I'd hear back and they'd take me up on my offer. These days not so much everybody pays more for games (overpays get off my lawn) of all types so deals are hard to find.

Quoted from DefaultGen:

I wouldn't drive a far distance for any cheap game I'm haggling on. If the seller was asking $400 and agreed on $200, I'd half expect that when I got there someone offered full price and he sold it from under me.

That's a completely valid point.

Crazy lowball offers is a local play.

I can't believe anybody here actually belives $200 is a fair offer anyway. If any one of you here was offered $200 for a Road Kings in any kind of non-flood recovery condition you'd probably be offended. But in a flea-market type situation the waters get a bit murkier.
