Thoughts on commerce in the "Age of Mendacity":
SELLERS:
1) When you advertize "price firm" you must MEAN IT! Then buyers can evaluate your add and move on.
2) Otherwise, always build-in enough headroom to discount, ship, etc.
3) ALWAYS over-pack your shipments of electronics.
4) For Pete’s sake, if your stuff hasn’t sold in 60 days don’t you think a price adjustment is needed? Get aggressive! Get that money in your bank account where you can use it.
5) Remember, no buyer wants a bad review. Use it if you need it.
BUYERS:
1) Try to use Paypal for extra security. The fee is worth it.
2) YOU are responsible for researching price, specs, reviews, etc.
3) Think! Some day you’re going to have to turn around and become a seller--be honest!
4) Remember, no seller wants a bad review. Use it if you need it.
Just a note: Research "late stage capitalism" and realize that it was a PREDICTION by Marx that closely resembles what’s going on now. Doesn’t make me or anyone else a commie, pinko, or even a socialist. Some people try to think before their knee jerks.
