What am I doing wrong? - AR listing in Marketplace

[Cobrafreak]

If you don't post a picture of it it will not attract enough interest.

Not that I don't appreciate the advise, but it seems the thread has answered the question. Thanks all for pointing it and your suggestions. I will just give it to my friend and have it waiting for me when I get back from HK and my appeal is overturned.

as others have said the market is flooded with them. i put one together the other day for my brother and had a total investment of just under 700.

GL with your trials and tribulations (pun intended) hope it works out for you. I just bought an AR 5 months ago or so or I would be interested.

with some of the comments i read on here i could have sworn i was reading off of arfcom. But yeah, you should take care of the cleaning and accept a 20-40% loss on any firearm unless it has historic value/limited run

You should be BANNED for a week for that comment. how dare you compare us that way?

Yeah, I did have it priced at $750 for about a month. . . Since no bites I presumed that it had little to do with the pricing. At anything lower than $750 I would rather give it to a friend than sell it.

Howdy friend!

- Worth a try.

No matter what you price something at somewhere there is a guy ready to low ball you. You could put a AR on sale for a buck someone somewhere is gonna wanna offer you 50 cents. No matter what the price you put even if its a fair or even more than fair price someone is gonna offer you less. I do the same thing when i buy something. I have waved bye bye to some good deals simply because im not willing to pay the price they want. its just business. i don't take anything personally. i don't fault the seller for wanting the best price he can get and I don't fault the buyer for wanting the best price HE can get. cant find a happy medium wave good bye move on to the next deal.
I find that usually FTF cash deals tend to make the price drop. If I agree to a price its one thing but if the item is not as described then I either renegotiate or walk away.
