LOL...loving the direction of this thread already. Pengwin, I respect the shrewdness. There's a "pengwin" in every league who frustrates the HELL out of people!! OMG, you are bang on with your examples. Your advice example is ideal for inquiry. The second is a major turn off. I'm prone to reply with a poopy response like: "I'll give you Casey Wellman and Joe Vitale + a 5th rd pick for RNH." -- Basically piss off.
Gainerama - I've done that for guys like Huberdeau in my sig. I'm a firm believer if you want someone do what you have to do. And in a short period of time, suitors come knocking and it's easy to turn down a lot of offers because they're not willing to pay what you did, if not more.
lucifer - brute force offers... yeah along the line of over-paying, but sometimes you don't want to give a person time to think and walk away... nice!
Eric - Yes! Offering your a trade that benefits only you is almost as bad as offering "trash"
for gold.
rataylor - Aaah, the salesman! Nothing like creating a sell-high.
Kevin - tisk... tisk...  You're a fleecer. LOL.
