I''m not going to commit to a price on something if I don't know how worn out it is or the condition it's in. When I show up and I don't like what I see, I will walk away or offer less.
If the seller refuses, then the onus is on me to adjust. I don't see a problem at all doing the negotiation in person rather than over text or email.

I include several pictures of the item and am very upfront about any wear and tear issues. I do this to specifically ward off any "Well...lemme see" type enquiries that waste my time. I state the price and there is no negotiation as a result (that's what "firm" is supposed to mean).
Keep in mind these are for simple items - if I were selling a car or something where there are more complex inspection related matters - yes, I understand the need to inspect the items.
Floor mats specific to a particular model of car or a brand specific bag for a stroller - hell no.
