FWIW: I agree with this...
you can always have your price or your budget in mind, hell, you might even go so far as to bat the idea at a discount to someone... but if they were offering 30% of the value I would take it 1 of 2 ways:
1) they think they are my friend (and they had better be to be serious)
2) they are insulting me... either by insulting my intelligence in knowing what I possess and its value, or by thinking I am so desperate...
Just my opinion on the matter, I work in a business where we negotiate hotel rates all day long, where someone is in a ball-park its one thing... but 30% is a little crass... IMHO
