Speaking of immoral....

There was a thread a little while back regarding immoral listing practices...by the way, I did not find that example immoral.

BUT...

Here is an auction I just stumbled upon for a BEAUTIFUL chip
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-casino-chips-/230957681126?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35c62689e6#ht_63wt_1400

In the auction, it shows that the following question was asked.

Hi, I just saw your poker chip and wondered if you would consider adding a "Buy it Now" option, for a straight sale, I can paypal. I don't have time these days to follow auctions to the end. I'd pay extra to just buy it now. I'd offer $100+5 shipping. $105 total Please let me know, I'd buy now and pay now... Thanks, Bill

...So my question is this; is it immoral to try to convince an unsuspecting holder of a very rare and valuable chip to end the auction early? And offer him/her $105 for a chip that is clearly worth $1,000+?
