Maybe he knew his prices were high but put out there to attract offers. (That’s usually why a “POR” is put on a nice gun.)
Personally I don’t get into that and either pay the asking price because I want the gun… or I just walk away. Experience has taught me that a seller won’t cut his price in half, or even by a third, because of what I might say.
