For private sales, that might work. Even professional dealers who just want to
move product. This car has a break even point and has been stored for a few
years, along with a bunch of other iron in the parking lot. Pretty surprising
the number of people who think they can get a repair for cheap, then walk away
from their cars. Had I been expecting the low ballers, I would have priced the
car far higher, so that the half price trick would get the car gone at the
proper price.

Most of the low ballers probably have a reasonable idea of what it is
worth and what they are prepared to pay. They are often smarter than
they look. You have the option of declining and are entitled to do so.
They are likely not all that surprised when you do, but they feel they
have nothing to lose and the odds are good that they can buy for less
than what they think it is worth so they can flip it. Stating higher is
not going to work with anyone who has done a bit of homework.
