Nice deal! I usually feel bad about selling when I get lowball offers.

In my opinion "best offer" is no different than an auction. If someone at an auction wants to pay $90 + 10% buyers premium for 9 circulated Ike's that is on them. It is not the auctioneers duty to tell them that is way too much to pay for them. Same is the case with a best offer deal. Potential buyers make an offer (bid), and you take the highest one, no matter how ridiculous it may be, simple as that. The buyer paid what he was willing to pay, so be it.

NO it's not your responsibility to tell buyers and warn them if their offer is high. Sale is being consumated, though if and when your buyer realizes afterwards he made a mistake and emailed you for recosideration in returning the said items...then a sense of compassion within you will enter into the picture. Meantime just enjoy the selling thing  |

Waredu made a great point. If these had been on ebay and the bidding shot to the moon for some reason, you would simply smile all the way to the bank.  |

I just hope he didn't think you had a $20 roll of halves. Halves do come in both $10 and $20 rolls.

Well since he counted all the coins individually, I do not see how that would be the case, unless he thought they were silver dollars or something. A case where a little knowledge can be dangerous I guess.

Sometime you win and in this case you won big. Maybe he has a very strong interest in that year.

You should be ashamed of yourself! (Did you get his phone number? Can I have it?)

Luckily buyers don't have to pass a test and so you shouldn't feel bad about what happened. This happens on ebay every day where buyers 'win' by out bidding everyone else. I just don't get it about some peoples approach to auctions. I'm a collector, but in my next life I want to be a dealer! Member ANA and EAC "You got to lose to know how to win".
