> That's the rich for you

It’s one group of very rich people (possibly) trying to screw over other rich people, though.

> I just may not want to sell to you.

You almost definitely do though. You just want more money because you know that the buyer doesn’t really have a choice.

Wanting a sell at a certain price doesn’t mean you want to sell at a lower price. The desire to sell is often directly correlated to the price. If someone offered me double for our families house, I’d sell. If they offer me slightly over market value I’d just hang up the phone. For most people there is a price, it’s probably not what an average buyer sees as a reasonable price if it’s not on the market.
