That's fine. But I thought it went the other way around too? I got multiple lowball offers on top of my already low prices. Shouldn't the buyers also understand that hookup thread prices are basically set prices (since they're usually so low) and the seller posted in there to NOT have to negotiate?

He's really drymounting good at this. Honestly had me going for a few minutes there. Well done!

I don't know how to answer this question without breaking your heart. I love the way your eyes sparkle under these lights. Did I ever tell you how beautiful you are?
The answer was yes. You passed, but just barely.
Yes, yes, yes!
this aggression will not stand, man.

But then saying add on 30 more dollars is not a set price.

Artists and print shops aren't the only ones who know how to screen print. Not saying I do that, but think about it...it's one of the easiest things in the world to do. All you need is a nice JPEG, or any image, and convert it to vector graphics. Make screens and boom, you have a copy.

Well why didn't you say so earlier!
two different people said they offered to pay more and you didnt want to. You wanted a gift
No, again, stop twisting it. I accepted an offer - GIFT OR NOT - before itsame came back with any counter offer. Then, when I said it was already sold (basically), he got pissy and told me he already has two Clusters anyway. PS: flippers are frowned upon, but hoarders (to flip later) aren't? HA!

Then, someone else said he wouldn't do gift. I gave him a "ok tack on $30" and then he got pissy because it wasn't what he wanted. Whether the $30 was "reasonable" or not is not the subject at hand. That is my choice.
A 10% markup when PayPal fees are 3% is stupid. I didnt mind covering fees, that's perfectly fine, but when you advertise $275 and then want $300 to cover fees then well...drymount off.

You are more than welcome to my Moss Star Wars for $150.

I agree with that. Valid point. However, when I get a PM and I respond asking if they're cool with sending via gift, that doesn't mean anything. I set my prices, expecting to get that. It doesn't hurt to ask for gift (or as much money you can get, no matter your tactic). Worst that happens is someone says "no." So then, I say tack on an extra $30...that's it. Dude got pissed that I wanted $30 extra. Who cares though? That's my choice. Maybe I just didn't want to do business with the guy so I highballed him? What I want to sell my goods for is my business. You can all have your opinions as you're entitled. However, what I want is what I want. No if's and's or but's about it. Like it or hate it, it is what it is.

Whatever the case may be, now you're showing your true colors and trying to pick apart anything I say. That's not what this is about.
