I see people with unrealistic expectations on price all the time, and not just with RV's.
An aircraft that sold for ~$80k in 2005 was selling for ~$30 in 2010, but I saw many of them listed at $60k to $70k and the ad said 'no low-ballets or ridiculous offers' kind of statements.
There's a person near here selling (or trying to anyway) a 1988 class A gasser, they're asking $20k. Someone I knew looked at the unit and said the owner was deeply offended and turned almost violent when he offered (without knowing the asking price) $5k for it. Even after showing the owner comparable units and what they were selling for the owner was unbending.
People get an idea and will stick to it regardless of facts, and not just with prices either.
