Do people really just not get it that their items are not selling...


simply because they are over priced?

what a cool sounding event Lance! I grew up in Maryland but haven't lived near there in many moons unfortunately.
sometimes I think it's just luck and timing too, especially if item is not commonly available...I listed an integrated twice with no serious offers, then listed it at same price a few weeks later, and 2 full price offers within 2 hours...
some items I have mixed feelings about selling, so if I can't get a good price I'm happy to keep them...
Unless the item is massively overpriced for the market, the ability to sell comes down to two factors:
1. Timing - that instant where there is somebody looking to buy exactly what you have.
2. Whatever the market will bear. Pricing and perceived value is really weird and I have seen an average $1500 item being sold successfuly anywhere from $1200 to $1800 within an 8 month timeframe. This doesn't always happen, but pricing can go all over the place.

I had a set of very expensive amplifiers ($7k) sell within one week. However, I had a set of much lower price amps sit for 3 months before selling. It all depends on timing.
