I bought from online retailers. I did not "scalp" all the items in "your area."
None of my items was bought at a retail store at all.
I supply several of my friends with Joes.
They ask me to because they can Never find what they need.
3 weeks ago I started selling some of my stuff on eBay starting at .99 cents.
For some reason the buy it now did not disappear from the Colum after people bid. Once they clicked on the auctions the Buy it Now was not there.
I was emailed by over 10 different people saying they wanted to buy it now but the option was not working.
I told them I would be happy to sell for that price if they wanted it. Because of that over 10 different people paid me DIRECT though paypal outside of eBay. This was better for me because of no eBay fees but I was getting tired of responding to the same emails.
"Hey could I buy quick kick now for 19.99?"
"Hey could I buy Dusty now for 19.99?"
"Hey could I buy DVD SE now for 19.99?"
Etc. etc etc.
I got tired of responding to the same emails over and over so I just listed those figures Buy it Now for 19.99.
AND I listed the SAME FIGURES at auction starting at .99 cents
I gave the BUYERS 2 OPTIONS.
And you know what:
I have sold several more quick kicks, Dusty, etc that way And my .99 cent auctions each ended at almost the same price.
I would not pay even close to that for any of these figures but if someone else wants to pay 19.99, I'm a jerk for giving them that option? Did I put a gun to their head?
On the Forum a few Losers are always complaining about stupid crap.
"Variant Wraith Buy it now for $100, what an asshole!"
I would not even pay $20 for a variant Wraith but I don’t complain just because another seller put a really high Buy It Now. Sellers sometimes put a really high Buy it now price just hoping that they get lucky. If the item sold for that price, good for him. Most times people bid on the item and the Buy it now is gone. NO BIG DEAL. People must have NOTHING at all going on in their life if their free time consists of whining and complaining about someone's BUY IT NOW price on eBay. .
Let’s say I bought 2 cases of Wave 10 for $140 and I got 2 Wraith variants. If someone offered me $140 for just those 2 figures I would sell without hesitation. So would anyone else on this forum including you
The only time I even go on the web is at work when I am getting paid.
I am getting ready to leave work now and go home to my wife and son.
Sorry if I'm being a Jerk.
Thanks!.
