Or maybe thru you George? Although I hear your not keeping customers
informed when they ask you about getting a certain item.

I wasn't trying to usurp Evan's business and maybe my reply was a little
terse. To expound; usually when offering used goods to RMMP in a pre Ebay
sale it's usually savvy to put the price below normal market/Ebay prices
since it's such a well informed and price conscious group. My point was that
you can buy the same cymbals for new for the same price or less (though we
dealers are not allowed to advertise below the MAP which is about 40% off).
The going market price for these used cymbals is around $400. They will
possibly go for more on Ebay.

If I'm fishing for customers here, I'm usually obvious about it; using
dayglow red bait!

Now what was that info I left you hanging on?

George,
I priced it for $200 less than Interstate's price, so I thought it was decent
starting point in which to haggle. Thanks for being the price police, though.

I think it's an accepted practice to critique price quotes here at rmmp; it
seems to keep the playground safe and fair. It's a little weird when someone
with competing goods/services does it, but in this case George didn't shill
himself, and he was correct.

Does anyone have any objections to this type (price critique) of reply? It
seems to me that if you're going to sell something here, you have to expect
this oversight. I don't think that rmmp is the place where you're going to
maximize your profit. For one, market knowledge is pretty thorough (and
vocal, as we've seen), and two, we're family.
