RE: [PLUG] FS: 20" monitor


$300 = I would like to get $300 for this item.
Or best offer =  but I recognize that you may not be willing to pay that
much so I'm willing to accept a reasonable offer near my asking price.

At least this is my interpretation.

This confuses me.  Does "or best offer" mean that if someone wants it 
more than another person, the person who makes the higher offer *above* 
the original asking price gets the deal?  Maybe I was right when I 
assumed that it meant the best offer even below the asking price.  I 
guess I need more haggle practice or a haggle dictionary.
