Your guy was much of a dick about you not taking the offer as the OP seller was about getting a low budget. People who treat ‘make me an offer’ as some kind of preset range and get mad that others don’t agree make the whole offer process painful.
There’s no “preset range”, but I would agree that if something is worth anywhere near $300, an offer of $20 is akin to saying “come on stranger, I want this for free”
Then it would seem you are not like the person I’m taking issue with.

In my experience people will often offer $20 for anything worth up to $1000 and as little as $50, any less and they want it delivered for free.
The number of people who offered me $20 for my $1200 TV was staggering, and one woman wanted me to pay her to take my beanbag chairs.
