Moos3h Posted February 10, 2010 Posted February 10, 2010 What is it in me that actually gets annoyed at ads like that? I think I should get out more, but it bugs the life out of me how someone can ask such an unrealistic amount of cash for something. Quote
Maverick Posted February 11, 2010 Posted February 11, 2010 Well, simple greed is one obvious factor, and the basic essence of ebay (imho) is pitting the greed of the buyers for a bargain against the greed of sellers who want to make a decent wedge. I often also get the sense that a lot of sellers don't actually want to sell what they've listed, and intentionally price high, so that if it doesn't sell they can always say they tried (possibly to the O/H who's trying to force them to sell), or if it does sell they know they've got a silly price for it and they can at least console themselves with that fact.

Stylon Pilson Posted February 11, 2010 Posted February 11, 2010 Maybe in this case, the price also includes the cab, and the seller is just one of those people for whom "bass amp" is a catch-all term to describe the entire rig. Even so, the price is probably still a bit steep. S.P. Quote
