lowballing is something I hate people up in arms about. Most of the 'lowballing' I've seen is from basic negotiating tactics.
If you ask somebody what they want to pay they're SUPPOSED to lowball (within reason*) because they expect you to come back with a highball for a counter-offer and generally you'll work something out in the middle of that.
*within reason is generally about +/- 30% of the item's total value.
