If you aren't completely embarrassed by what you are offering then you are offering too much. I was told that one time and I live by it now. I have insulted a few people but by far it has paid off for me, I have gotten a lot of things very cheap, If I would have offered more for the stuff I would have given away free money to someone. You can always go up but you can never drop in price if you are the buyer. I love finding really sweet deals.
For just the coop, I would probably offer $30, if he is insulted I would laugh and say oh well ya can't blame me for trying you wanted an offer, then I would make him throw a price out to me, the funny thing is he will be afraid to insult you at this point because he knows what you think it is worth so he is gonna come back with something close to his bottom dollar.
I love wheeling and dealing. Hope you get it as cheap as you can.
