I don't understand how this is a semi-scam. If you ask for 10c and they come back at 5c or 8c, you have the right to say no. That's all. I always want to buy items at a lower price. I don't always ask the seller, especially if I know it's already a good price. But whats wrong with negotiating? I would rather spend 5c than 10c. It doesn't hurt to ask. You can always say no.
EDIT: I just reread your post. Are you saying that you list an item at 10c and they come back and say something like this "I'll take your b/o at 5c"? If that's what you mean, yes that's a little slimy.
Yes that is what they are doing.

ok, there's no need to get hostile guys. What's happening here is people offering to b/o an item at a lower price than he listed it at but being a little slippery about it. I think the OP is just offering it to us as a warning to watch out for.

Not a tactic I use, I just negotiate or pay B/O, but if you can create an edge within the rules many traders will do so happily.
Capitalism = I can get ahead, at your expense.
Communism = I can get ahead, if I'm in a position of power?

They're trying to get you to sell an item for less than you have it listed for. It doesn't matter that they're trying to make it look like their offer IS the buyout price. THAT is part of the barter game also.

Sorry bro, I know you went back and reread. You already earned your spot, coming back and pretending otherwise is a bit sad :)
EDIT: Your argument is without merit btw. What these people are trying to do is the equivalent of someone walking into a shop with a price sticker gun and labeling a product at a discount and then going to the owner and asking to buy the product at the "listed" price.

It's a bit sad that you have such a poor understanding about how the trade game works in PoE. :)
This isn't a shop with sticker prices though, It's a barter game where anything goes.
