[Wavery]

A lot of people list items (like used cars & RVs) at "Fair market value" knowing full well that they will never get anything close to "Fair market value" for the item. They list the item with absolutely no consideration for all of the people that come to see the item and have no interest in buying it due to it's poor condition.

They list it at a price that is far above it's "true value", hoping to find a compromise somewhere between it's "true value" and it's "market value". That type of marketing strategy is flat dishonest and the seller has no consideration for others.

DON'T fall for his game. Set a reasonable offer, based on what you feel it will cost you to get it up to "fair market value" in parts and labor. You may be very sorry if you waver from that.
