Funny story, I got an email earlier today:
"hi my offer is 5700.00 cash as is were is very serious"
Dafuq is dis?
Guy is offering me MORE than my asking price. Obviously I don't mind but you can't help but wonder why people go out of their way to waste your time. To prove to myself that it was bs, I replied to him stating that my phone number is in the ad and that he should call me for more details. Doubt I'll receive any phone calls.

For me it depends on the email/text (because of course it's never a call). If all they say is "will you take $2500" and it clearly states firm at let's say $4000 then I'll likely just ignore. Maybe if I'm in the mood I'll say "For $2500 I'll give you the drivetrain".
If it's a few emails back and forth and they make a lowball offer I tend to just go with the flow. Don't say yes, don't say no. Tell them to come see the car, because like you said, they're potential buyers. I prefer to always negotiate in person. That way it at least shows some real interest.
Got an email last week from a guy wanting to buy my chassis. Didn't want the drivetrain. Told me to name my price. I told him I'll make him a great deal. $3000 and I'll even include the engine, transmission, and coilovers! Didn't get a response.

En tk, je vous etes dumb de ne pas répondre. On dirait vraiment qu'en 2013 le monde veulent rien vendre. Criss un low-ball c'est Du potentiel... il a quand même un intéret. C'est comme ceux qui prennent des photos tout croche ou qu'il ne réponde pas sur kijiji. Caliss, tu es le vendeur, force toé calvaire.
C'est dûr de répondre : non, je te laisse pas a ce prix. Le gars peut réenchérir après.
Y'en a pour qui la base du marketing ce n'est pas dans leur corde, surout sur MR...
Par CONTRE, pour une voiture en bonne état, qqun qui m'offre un montant SANS avoir vu le véhicule, je lui dis que non, dsl, viens le voir.
Comme quand je vendais mon t-rex. " heille man jte donne 29k live" . Je lui répondais pareil, "heille man, un bébelle de même tu viens la voir avant d'offrir".
