Yes, that does seem kind of strange - if somebody was in a hurry to sell regardless of price they'd just go to a store in the first place, right?
I suppose it could be considered the electronic equivalent of a store owner driving around to scout flea markets & garage sales & such.
Maybe there's a trade journal for used guitar shop owners - "Tip of the Month: read your local Craigslist and offer less than the asking price."
