OK, nominally this is an eBay specific thread. But I'm just going to start venting all my online buying & selling woes here. And by "woes" I mean "WTF?"
I posted some WE stuff on Bartertown. It's almost entirely still on the sprue of in the packaging -- like 98% of it. The rest it unassembled/unpainted. I listed exactly what was in each condition. There are also a bunch of extra bits listed.
Taking the prices of just the complete figures, I'm trying to sell at about 50% of retail.
My first round of replies consist entirely of people:
a.) Trying to talk me down to selling at 30-40% of retail price.
b.) Wanting to see pictures of the figures.
Seriously, WTF? I figured I would unload this stuff in no time. Seems like a deal to me. If I was shopping for a new army (or to expand my existing army) and someone was offering mint figures at 1/2 retail, I'd probably consider that a pretty good deal. Obviously better than eBay.
Better than any online discounting retailers, too.
I might understand if I said it was all assembled, or painted, or stripped. But other than a few figures, it's all specifically listed as on-sprue or sealed. C'mon, requests for pictures? Of what -- box art and sprues? And sorry, 1/3 retail price? Should I include the keys to my car?
