Ridiculous asking prices on Ebay for cue's example

People are free to ask what they want for something on eBay.
Higher the sale price is happy time for ebay as they get bigger commission.
Are there deals on eBay, yes. But you have to not be impulse buyer.

It's everything, I do a lot of browsing for a lot of different stuff on the marketplace and I haven't hardly seen a single deal that has tempted me in the last couple years. See a ton of pool cues for well over retail. Watching car listings has gotten comical. They just keep reposting them month after month, some ads have been on there over a year now and asking price hasn't come down.
It's a phenomenon , especially in the United States, they have no idea of what something is worth , but they know they aren't selling it too cheap. So it just sits in a storage place until they have an auction , the whole room sells for 200 dollars , they move it down the street to their storage place ,and rinse and repeat. Completely goofy.
Insane times about now.

The cue discussed here is one I know little about including pricing but I do see he is offering at that price *or* make offer.
If it's something that interests you make him an offer where you think it should be. He'll accept, decline, or make a counter offer.

"Ridiculous asking prices on Ebay for cue's" Oh sooo true!
Ha ha, I've almost started this very thread a hundred times. I tend to be on the other end of the spectrum price wise and I think I also over emphasize flaws which leads me to think I make it harder to sell my items than it really should be sometimes. Oh well I'll keep doing it my way I would rather someone gets what they expect or possibly a bit more rather than the alternative. Which has happened to me quite a few times with eBay purchases. If some of those cues are worth anywhere near the asking prices, I may already be a millionaire. lol.

It was 1100 brand new with revo. This color combo is no longer made and it's seems to be one of the more popular color combo's. With that said this cue is hammered I just included a couple of the pics. Looks like this thing rolled around in someone's trunk all it's life. I get your point though. I am definitely not making an offer on something this beat up.
And that's how it works.
Well said!
I just order a new 2 Cue - Q-Claw off eBay, got color I wanted, was best price delivered, not every EBay seller is asshat.
Was trying to sell a Cue on eBay a year ago, one buyer drove me nuts with pm offers, kept saying it was only worth part of asking price.
Buyer was apprently would class chiseler,when the Cue finally sold as listed, sent note saying told you so.
Response was ugly, fook him.
