Agree Geoff. Even my as new 13mm T6 which you'd think is a high demand EP took a couple of weeks to sell at 3/4 retail price.

Perhaps it's worth mentioning at this point that there are also those who will never sell anything because they cannot exercise a bit of objectivity when setting the price. Only thinking of their loss, the difference between what they paid and what they are selling for, they set the price as close to new as possible e.g.: I just bought this thing last month for $800, it's still practically brand new, so it's still worth $800, but I'll let it go for $750.

You have got to ask yourself whether you would consider buying the item second hand at the price you're asking people to pay. If something is second hand and no more than around 10-15% off retail, I'd rather pay the little extra for a brand new item (along with the dealer support).
