sorry i disagree with u zero cool but if he has priced it higher then its a loss for a prospective buyer ... someone who buys this for 43500 will regret seeing one for a 46000 available with twice the storage .
i dont mind sellers earning a profit as i earn that too off my sale .. if I post something in the members market and if any member points out to me that its available cheaper somewhere else , i will clearly rethink my price ..
nothing wrong with earning a profit ... but lets say if a 32gb 3g ipad was available for 35000 on ebay right now .... would u not inform other members that the deal is expensive...
i do want him to earn a profit but also know that his pricing is on the higher side .... if i point out to someone that the price is high i always try to give a url where the pricing is lesser or similar ...
most people do that on my FS threads as well and i have no problem with that ...
most people do not provide proof of a product being available at a lower cost ... in this ccase i have given him proof that a similar higher capacity model is being sold at a competitive price .
and in this case i am a prospective buyer .. i have already pm'd him for a better price quote and pick up today morning if he gives me a fair price ..u should have checked that with him b4 u thought of me as a lowballer .
If someone puts up a for sale thread and if one sees a better deal somewhere else for the same product , he or she should post those links on that thread ..
this helps in better price discovery ... or else ull find people putting very high prices and TE will start looking like ebay .
there was a similar thread for a blackberry torch few days ago as an IC where a member quoted 37-38k as the price .. had i not told him that the phone was selling for 32k in Mumbai he would have sold it at 37k to other members .. he later changed the pricing to 35k
.....i put FS sale threads too and people are free to tell me if the same product is available cheaper anywhere else ....in my first few FS posts it used to piss me off too but i think its fair ...
now other buyers, including myself have a price benchmark to negotiate this at and hopefully the seller will understand that too
