The only thing that matter is what they think you can get elsewhere. eg. what others are willing to pay. Think of it as an auction. Something might be worth $100 but if the highest bid is $10 you are only going to bid $15 not $100.

I don’t know. If I really want that I might bid $110 initially just to put off others from even attempting a bid.

Might cost me money, but I don’t feel bad about that, since I still get my moneys worth.
