Selling dillema. Advice needed.
« on: June 02, 2006, 03:32:19 PM »
Ok, so I just put something for sale in the yardsale without carefully checking out the value of it, and it turns out I'm cutting myself a pretty raw deal (145 new, selling for 60 used). I've had a few bites but haven't set anything up in terms of a sale. What do you think, is it too late to change the price of the item (say, raising it by 10 bucks), or is that "bad faith"?

Its your item, do what is best for you. I say go for it, though as you know, people on this site dont pay standard real world used prices anyway...always VERY low. Youd probably have better luck elsewhere, to be honest...depending on what it is.

IMO, if you haven't committed to sell at $60, i.e. have a purchase agreement in place, then no worries changing the list price if you wish.

OTOH, I don't think that $60 is that unreasonable for a 7pin>coax these days

I split the difference and put it up for 70 including shipping.  I feel better and the price difference is nominal.  Lesson to be learned: do your research before selling your stuff!
