Tell me you're not serious.

You know how to best address low ballers or other unreasonable buyers? Make them wait. Don't you just hate it when there is an item of interest, a great deal or a unique item you really want, you message the seller, but don't hear back? It's nauseating
Option 1 - ignore them and make them wait
Option 2 - politely decline their offer and tell them that you have a local buyer lined up
Option 3, get in to an exchange like the one you ended up having. Completely unnecessary and not worth your time. And I agree with others, you looked as bad as the RMH guy.
It's just so easy to go with option 1 or 2. No need to call people out for being a low baller or unreasonable, they already know that.
