Guys who never sell cues

[bbb]

I dont have to do something to be an expert…..
Just sayin

 

[GoldCrown]

The internet has given many, many people the ability to show how smart they are(n't) by allowing them to answer questions that were never asked.

Social media... I asked question on a car forum.... got 4 unrelated answers. Had nothing to do directly with what I wanted to know.

You have to fade the railbirds even with buying and selling.

Amen. The same thing goes for price knocking. For the life of me I cannot understand why anyone would feel the need to act like the price police when someone is trying to sell something. If the price is too high it either won't sell or somebody is going to "overpay." And what's overpaying for person A might be the exact right price for person B.

The lowest form of posting… price advice. I got that with a car. My response was I do not your help. But if I do I’ll let you know.

WTB…. High end cue real cheap. Must be in perfect condition. Would appreciate free shipping and a 30 day return window if not satisfied. Can I pay it off. Serious sellers only please. And no peanut gallery advice.

Would you like a free trail period?

Would you like a free trail period?

Yes only if there is no obligation… and not if after 30 days the payment is automatically applied. Free returns?

Sounds familiar

I love free trial periods

Who cares sell and buy what you like last time i checked it's a free country.

Some people are buyers and other are sellers?

Some are keepers.
When I buy a cue, I plan on keeping it. Forever!
Regret selling all the cues I once owned. They all went cause I was broke.

if you cannot stomach someone having an opinion you dont like maybe dont post it in a public forum.

it takes all kinds of people and those with varied thoughts and values to make a forum work. you have to adjust to being in the minority all the time and experience good and bad.

Social Media.... The subject usually changes by the 3rd post. Me personally I'd offer my experiences how I pack and ship a cue. As for someone else's sale it's not my business unless I'm buying it. I usually do not sell what I own..but the few times I did I got a lot of unwanted advice especial how to price the item. Dunning K.... I love that study. It's most of the people I met in my life.

As for sales I feel if the OP does not like a post about what they are selling (assuming the listing is accurate) they have the option to have the post deleted on request if it effects the sale

I agree , internet, except I think it's a different reason.
Everybody is now an instant expert at everything, they just google it , or wikipedia, Not always correct or really in depth, but you can get the gist in 2 minutes, instead of years.
Instead of saying I just looked this up, they pretend to be knowledgeable.
I have no problem with finding info this way, I do it all the time, but I would not argue with my heart surgeon over a procedure without
# 1. making sure the info I had was correct.
#2 seeing if my doctor had ever done the surgery before or how many people he had put in body bags, attempting it.
Unfortunately almost everyone , gets their 2 minute cram session in, and now it is gospel according to them.

My favorites are the people who say, something like you do you, i'll do me , or we all have the right to blah blah blah and 3 days later they are on here going off about how wronged they are , somebody reversed it on them and they hate it lol f.in idiots. Yes , if you do this, this means you.! hahaha

I have always been a collector, rather than a trader/dealer, all my life. Pool cues, firearms...every gun I have sold, I have regretted, pool cues not so much, because I was "moving up".

No ticket, no laundry.

There is a lot of shit buyers just as much as shit sellers out there.

I held on to my McDermotts (3 of them) for years. Only sold them because I upgraded considerably and never looked back. Plan on keeping what I have now until I cannot play...

Had this recently selling a snowmobile: Guy on the forum told me i was a lunatic for asking so much and he'd consider if it was posted lower.
Then make an offer??? (crickets)

You can always lower your price, you'll rarely (if ever) be able to increase it. Anyone that's ever sold anything knows that...

 

[tim913]

I’m no good at buying/selling. I shop the “free” section on Craigslist and still wind up getting screwed!

 

[Nyquil]

I sell wholesale, no public for me

Does this mean you are willing to sell? I am interested buyer I know you got some bangers.
