Actually, I think I'll chime in too - just for fun.
JohnnyRocks - It's not that difficult to understand, honestly. OP wants to sell something. He sets a price. If you want it at that price you offer it. If you don't, you make a different offer. He accepts or doesn't as he wishes. End of Story. It's not really your problem whether he charges over the "market rate" or not. It's his - and he might have a hundred different reasons why he doesn't want to compete with Best Buy - for example he might decide it's worth selling at one price and worth keeping at another. That my friend is basic capitalism and I'm very surprised that despite your self-proclaimed business success you seemed to have struggled with that.
That said, the seller shouldn't really have engaged but he's totally entitled to set whatever price he wants.
Cheers!
