Just tell them no. It's not like you have to sell it to them.
At least your combo comes with a LaRue mount. My friend tried selling me his beat up CompM2 with a no-name mount for like $430.  I told him no thanks, I'd go buy a brand-new T1 with a LT mount for like $150 more.

Also I agree that the auction screams scam.

I guess it just amazes that people think they are going to get a brand new Aimpoint optic w/ LT mount for $200 when you can hardly buy the mount for that. |

If that ebay optic is such a good deal ask him why doesn't he just buy that one?

Hate to burst your bubble but the lt 150 mount is 115 from larue and the aimpoint m2 from skd is 375 if you buy only one 350 if you buy 3 or more. so you can buy the whole thing and have night vision capability for 490 plus shipping.

Wanna link to it for $375? I'm on the SKD site and I'm seeing a ML2 for $445. I see a M2 for $495 but I have no idea where you are seeing $375. |

On the rare occasion I sell something, I price to sell, don't negotiate down and state as much in my ad. Never had a problem with my stuff moving, either.
I guess some guys like to haggle. Me? I have neither the time nor the inclination. IMs with counter offers get deleted, unless it's a trade that catches my eye. Price it to move and then stick to your guns. The odds of guys like me with cash in their pockets looking at your ad, blading and moving on is far more likely than you landing a flopper...especially on a site like Arfcom. |

Your price is 10% off retail for new. I personally wouldn't call that pretty good but thats just me. But I doubt the auction the person sent you is the market price either. Being the nice guy that I am, I'd suggest to them that the auction is likely a scam from their zero feedback and below market price and leave it at that. I'd probably also change my asking price to something more like $420 and sell my item in a hurry.

I don't bother replying to low ball offers . I received a similar message last week claiming they purchased the same thing for half my asking price on Gunbroker. Funny part is i sold the gun about 10 minutes later for the price i was asking.

I'm only about 1% inclined to sell my rifle (which is the only reason I'd sell my optic/mount on it) so I'm not in a hurry to sell it. If it took until Spring I wouldn't be the slightest bit disappointed. |

Whenever I sell something, I always put what I want for it. I dont try to play the "well they are going to try to talk me down, so, I'll put it high.." game. Its not like well, I'll sell my G19, I want 450 for it, so I'll price it at 550. With that logic, ask 1000 bux for it, and someone might give you 800? I put what I want to get for it, and when people ask what the bottom dollar is, I tell them. Over time, what I want to get for it might change, so I'll entertain offers. |

If you still have it in the spring I'll give you $300. There, now you know what the floor is. |

You don't have to sell it to them. Tell him to go ahead and get that on off ebay.
