Drives me insane. Some people I counter higher than what I originally asked just so they get the point!

Yes, exactly.
I like to negotiate for a fair price sometimes. But I always am polite and just say I think it's a bit high and give some comps and then say what my offer might be. 95% of the time people are reasonable and it's cool.
It's the low ballers who just show up and message you "Will you take (60-70% less than asking)?"
No. New price for you is 20% more now.
Also, I used to collect vintage guitars. Occasionally someone would post a high value guitar for way less and I always messaged them explaining how this worth more and to repost it in line with market value.
That’s worth a ⚡️
This is exactly how I operate too. Negotiation is fair, but if they offer an insulting number, the price just went up.
