You know this really isn’t a big problem. I think that it is not needed for the OP to whin about this in a forum, especially since he has a retail history. If a seller has mispriced their item they will find out when it doesn’t sell. No need to complain about it. But here is an idea: make an offer! Negotiate. If you think the price is too high and you have checked the usual sites to see what the market value really is, than ask the seller why they are asking what they are asking. They might just tell you. You lose nothing by doing so. This reminds me of a couple of quotes: “if you don’t ask, you don’t get” and the one from Wayne Gretzky: “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.”
sellers trying to sell used product for 10-20% off of list price
I don’t get it. Almost any item here can be bought brand new from a dealer with a full warranty for 20% off - virtually any and all high end product. Some can be bought for close to 30% percent off. Sellers trying to sell year old product for 20% off are delusional, perhaps hoping for someone to naively buy it at their price but I doubt it happens. If the product isn’t in the range of 40-50% off of MSRP I'm not sure why anyone would buy it as often the warranty doesn’t transfer. Factor in sellers asking for 5-6% extra for Paypal plus shipping charges and even a 30% percent discount really is more like 15% off of list- a non starter. Am I the only one doing this math ? I can buy brand new at 25-30% with no extra charge for using paypal or my credit card and minimal shipping. Asking for a friend lol.
