Stuff for sale used vs. new

Tue Jul 18, 2017 12:30 pm

i gave up anything i wanted to sell or trade as market is flooded with new stuff for way way cheap.
so i thought it would be fun to locate items that are being sold on here vs. new ones at a better price.

here is an example :ROFLMAO:

Sadly most of us have shit in our safes that we would NEVER get our value back out of. While some just accept taking it in the pooper, others don't.

Yep, now is an awesome time to buy new. For those of us with too many toys already, it's time to just sit on 'em. There's no way to sell for anywhere near what I paid for most things unless they're unique and collectible and those I don't want to part with!

We will look back at this time in 20 years and think, dammit I should have bought more.

Fun, maybe. Acceptable, no.

Of course it's great to post good deals when you see them, but please don't cross the line to calling out people for charging what you perceive to be too much in their classified threads.

So much coddling. no backbone. if one gets upset because someone says their price is to high. They missed out on Prime Day and didn't get a deal on a binky and bottle.

There are TONS of screaming deals on used items here and other places.

I have NEVER paid more than 75% of new and usually closer to 50% of new for beautiful used items.

I routinely buy reloading supplies for allot cheaper than retail also.

Some items HOLD or increase in value. Black and plastic guns, not so much. Try not to confuse "valuable" with "trendy".

Yep. I got one a couple years ago and have about $1200 in it; I considered selling it here earlier this year but saw the new prices on them and realized it didn't make any sense. I'll be glad I kept it though, they are a great rifle, IMO one of the better 308 ARs available right now in design at least, even if the quality isn't always top tier.

When Hillary won (oh, wait...) - when Hillary LOST, my gun collection took a large depreciation and a massive swing in value. And I've never been so happy to a pile of money.

TRUMP!

Buy old Colts. They never go down in value, regardless of who is in office.
