This comment got me thinking so I looked at the various ads again, and noticed the high number of views, even on very expensive items, but with no resultant sales. Unfortunately astronomy equipment tends to be on the expensive side here in Oz, and with the ever-increasing cost of living people are going to have less and less disposable income available for such expenditure. I have seen several items of interest but when the prices aren't that far removed from new then I figure if I really want it then I'll buy new (that's what my wife tells me to do).
The number of views show the interest is often there, but I guess everyone likes a bargain too.
