If they offer more plat than they should because they understand that I have to go through the extra hassle of selling the item that they're clearly having trouble selling, that's fine.

If the offer basically just treats the unsold item as if it were already sold, you're just outsourcing a chore to me. Nah.

OP is mostly right and is not being a "little bitch" for complaining, although he could also put "(firm)" in his auctions which usually weeds out the annoying bargain bin dudes.

My pet peeve is when people list stuff with no price at all. WTS: Expensive Item. Why? What is the purpose of this?

A lot of people undercut the price of others. If someone's listing an item for 10k, someone else will just ask for 9.8k on their listing instead.

That's what I assumed but personally I usually just ignore people who don't list a price cause I don't want to do the whole negotiation routine. I see an item, for a price, and if I want it bad enough for that price and I have the money I buy it. So you might have sold your item sooner to a buyer like me than withholding the price in order to save 200p over the undercutting jerk. Time is money(plat) and everything.
