you guys are too polite.....
I fully agree with the above posts and follow SDcampbells method of pricing. I take the time to price my items fairly and at or below market and place my ads as FIRM. If I don't get any bites and someone offers $100 or so dollars less, then I may sell, or if I don't get offers, I will often slowly decrease my price. I have sold everything I put for sale here on Audiogon within 7 days, the expection being an amp I have currently for sale, which i felt was going fly outta here in a day.
There was a pretty popular thread here a few days ago, regarding annoying ads....in my opinion, and I kept from posting there, buyers by far can be more annoying than any ad ive read. I think, people have trouble reading ads, does it say FIRM or obo, if it is FIRM, it means unless you want it at the stated price, dont ask questions about price....is there a Big Red "SOLD" icon there?, if so, then no it is no longer for sale. How much does it weigh?, well there is a little window that has the weight of them item. How much is shipping? well, since you are in front of a computer, and the Audiogon peeps, took the time to create a link to UPS, Fedex, USPS, and you as a buyer hopefully know your own zip code, how about putting it in the field and discovering it for yourself?
I am currently receiving emails from someone interested in my amp,....he never returns my emails....he has given me his cell phone,..it is never on, it has no voice mail,,...i have given him my phone #s on several occasions, he has never called me.....i am beginning to think someone I know is playing a joke on me
Wheeeew....that feels better.....
