Types of Sellers

[Subotai]

"The Bushwacker (BW)" - Handles himself very well. Come time to pay, they are always short ten bucks.

(CH) and (FU) earn spots on my ignore list. These type people have driven me to sell more and more stuff out of CA. Luckily my last item was a scarce and desirable off list semiautos and it got to stay in CA. I was real close to listing it for sale out of state or consigning it to an auction house.

I'd of rather taken less money than dealt with just one more CGN lowballing flake or window shopper with no money.

I do that, but only because I find it annoying to scroll through 3 pages of "bump" before I find a comment that says "price drop $xxx.xx"

I do the same but I have never had to wait more than a week or so to sell something.

The average seller would not have to price things to the "upper echelons of the price range" if this site was not crawling with people that will send you a offer of 50% of your asking price.

Very funny thread though.

Love this thread, well done OP!

The Highlander (01) Has an item so rare or specialized, priced accordingly, that only a few people in the entire world would have interest. Communication becomes brutal combat and the potential buyer is quickly defeated; the hunt for a buyer is never ending.

nice adds everyone! enjoyed everyones perspectives!

I just like we can poke fun at ourselves and keep it real. Again, NOTHING serious going on here. Just all in good fun.

If you think this was a complaint thread, wait til the Buyers review! I know there will be tons of stories on that one!

[sealocan]

^ That sounds like a good plan & I can't wait for that thread.

I'm sure I'll get some smiles out of that one as well.

But it does bring up the question..

Are you (address to everyone here.) a better buyer or better seller?

[Ford8N]

Hey, what about the sellers who are willing to send stuff out and ask for payment after it's received and inspected?

I've dealt with a few here. Good people.

We forgot

The Stand Up Guy (SU) : Awesome transaction, shows up on time, have a great time chatting about firearms with them. Painless transaction.


I am lucky that 95% of my CalGuns transactions have been with these guys : )

Yup. I notice they also have high post counts and excellent seller/buyer ratings.

[Emdawg]

Oooooo... wonder what I qualify as....

[browncoat]

Great job OP.
Can't help but smile along with your descriptive and realistic observations.
I look forward to the "buyers edition".

[toddh]

OP. you have created pure gold.

Personally, I think it should be made a mandatory read for everyone before buying or selling in the marketplace.

Very well done,"Finally a POST worth READING!". Pete

[phil conrad]

I can hardly wait for the buyers edition. I may have a few to add as well...........

[munkeeboi]

I do that, but only because I find it annoying to scroll through 3 pages of "bump" before I find a comment that says "price drop $xxx.xx"

+1

I'd rather keep the post clean. Wish more people would do this

[x601]

I've amended the SB a bit to reflect my fellow CGners very valid reasons for deleting bumps. I actually appreciate it. I did leave the original description for pure entertainment value.

[Chilidaugz]

What about someone who initiates a group buy and then disappears?
