Am I going crazy or?

I've been thinking about this for awhile now- I see many things for sale on agon. Some are reasonably priced, some priced to cheap ( those go quickly ) and some things priced for more than anyone will ever pay. I guess the folks that get me are those that over price, and refuse offers. I watch their adds go out after the 33 days. And then some list the add again at the same price. I find this interesting. I know I would not expect them to sell to a low baller. However I wonder why they can't take a hint. The worth of something for sale is determined not, by what the seller feels it is worth, but rather by what the market is willing to pay. And for sure we are now in a buyers market virtually on anything.

Mrtennis,

If this issue is of " no concern to you " then why do you keep posting in the thread? not that I mind if you post or not of course.

i do have an intrest at what people are selling at becuase i may be interested in buying the piece. people that want to sell on agon should educate them self on at least bluebook before selling. and they can also see what a piece like theirs is sellling for on agon.

how outrageous can it be? i was once selling some tubes at market price. another guy was selling the same tubes at 3 times the market price. he sent me an e-nail and asked me to remove my ad becuase people wanted him to lower his price becuase mine were cheaper. now that is just plain greed!

bluebook or not..very rare items ..audio/coins/baseball cards,that are in mint/nr.mint condition always command prices that are 3to 4x the going bluebook quote.couple this fact that many people live many miles away from high end stores and access to the computer is there only chance to buy quality items.

Route9,

Actually the tubes were Telefunken 6922 at the time the market price was between $125-$150. He wanted $429 for his. Even now the average is $250. So your baseball card theory doesn't apply here.

Nice try though.....
