Over my short stint on this forum I have mentally noted the guidelines to have a sucessful sale:



#1 Seller does research to find the absolutley HIGHEST price an item can sell for NEW

#2 Seller posts his USED part price, citing above referenced price and how his asking price for used part is such a deal - even though this price is more than most places sell for new

#3 INFORMED Buyer posts his offer taking into account what realistic new prices that this part can be got for on this planet

#4 Seller replies with 'no way - you're crazy not sellin for that price'

#5 No worries, because there will be at least 10 other buyers that read the BS as in #1 and take that as gospel - fighting over who is going be the first person to pay more for a used part than new


Must be quite a few people with more $$ than brains here...

I have way more than enough $$ to pay for items new, but have found thru experience that good used parts for less work just as well.

OK my rant is now over

Bumpity
