Here's a great one that's been going on since yesterday morning:
Used twice 16mm Zenitar Fisheye with front and rear caps, colored rear-mounted screw on glass filters (red, green, yellow, clear), and m-42 mount that fits on a Nikon dSLR listed for 220, granted I paid 300.

Them: any trades on this? or bottom dollar? ive been looking at the fisheye adapters on ebay but this looks a looot better
Me: How about $200
Them: im assuning the autofocus wont work, and no zoom right? hows it do
with macro shots?
Me: No autofocus as it was not available when it came out. No zoom, it's a 16mm with 0.3 - Infinite Focus ring, and Opens up from f2.8 to f22. Actually It should do well with macro shots, since it can focus at a pretty close distance.
Them: would you let me try it out a bit? ill bring my laptop an check the
pics out...ive got $150 cash
Me: Sorry but, I'm not going that low, I paid 300 for that lens.
No thanks
Them: i cant afford 200...meet me in the middle
Me: I'll sell for 180, thats all ready $60 off what I was asking
Them: hell man i checked ebay...i can get that lens for $200 new free shipping....so im gonna have to withdraw my previous offer of $150. i think im gonna hold out to find a deal on a nikkor 10.5 unless you wanna sell this cheap
Me: Sounds good, don't contact me again.
.....Mother f**ker, waste of my time
what is funny is that his conclusion is more than he could originally afford ($200), but he's going to hold out for a $570 lens from Nikon, what a dumbass!
