Am I going crazy or?

I've been thinking about this for awhile now- I see many things for sale on agon. Some are reasonably priced, some priced to cheap ( those go quickly ) and some things priced for more than anyone will ever pay. I guess the folks that get me are those that over price, and refuse offers. I watch their adds go out after the 33 days. And then some list the add again at the same price. I find this interesting. I know I would not expect them to sell to a low baller. However I wonder why they can't take a hint. The worth of something for sale is determined not, by what the seller feels it is worth, but rather by what the market is willing to pay. And for sure we are now in a buyers market virtually on anything.

Yep. A whole lot of folks are asking too much for some very ordinary stuff. But, if you are tying to sell a high quality, expense, product admired by many but affordable to few you can't expect to sell if at a fair price in a short period of time. You might have to list it several times until a willing buyer appears. When the sellers patience expires he'll lower his price.

If I wanted such a piece of stuff I would E-mail the seller and explain to him that while I considered his asking price too high that I wanted to buy the item and if he ever revalued it to let me know.

You never know, nothing ventured nothing gained.

Mr T,

If we don't know the selling price of our stuff how can we figure out the value of our assets, our net worth? Where else can we get (more) accurate appraisals. Of course its our business! Or perhaps just a curious distraction..........

Ever wonder what the value of the properties in your neighborhood might be? Even if you don't plan to sell soon, or at all? :-)
