Lowball Lonnie 

A guy that comes to your yard sale real early, sees your 1989 Nintendo plus 50 games and offers you $5 for the box. Walks around the sale picking up everything expensive asking "Would you take $1 for this? How about $.50???". Then when they go to pay they hand you a $20 dollar bill for $3 of stuff!!!
The guy probably stores it all in a shed and sells it all on Ebay.
That Fuckin Lowball Lonnie offered me $1 for my $90 TI Calculator!!!!

Every time I have a yard sale a Lowball Lonnie shows up at 5am with $3 to spend.
