WrongIf you need to bump more than once the market is telling you something about your price.
Little more complicated then that. I was out of personal transfers so would have had to use a dealer anyway and I needed to fund another project prior to 1/20/21.Right!
So what you’re saying is, you would have rather taken $400 from those cuck statists at the man bun parlor than sell it to someone here for $400?
Please ‘splain why you didn’t just drop your price here, and also why you blame NES for your failure to realize your shortcomings as a purveyor of goods?
Actually, this is an example of "right", not "wrong".Wrong
I had my M&P 9mm for sale here for a long time and got no bites for a good price of $500. So I took it to Gun Parlor and got $400 for it.
They sold it to some fu cking sucker for $700 in 24 hours.
The classifieds here are limited penetration with ma gun owners
True. It is a litmus test of the market price when selling to NES members.My point is this classifieds isn't a good litmus test of fair market pricing.

Did it come with a bunch of accessories, upgrades or magazines? Not trying to be a smart ass, but you can buy a brand new one at Four Seasons for $499.I had my M&P .40 for sale here for a long time and got no bites for a good price of $500.

Ha, ha...only on NES can we get a post about a simple search answer and then a full thread arguing about the right way to do it! Happy Thanksgiving all you angry turkeys!

And none of you ever heard of the gunbroker? Daaamn.I'm with @Lxpony. I've listed some 40 caliber stuff here that didn't sell after a couple of bumps. I thought the price was good for the market. Couple of low balls, figures it's NES. After a few weeks I brought it to FS. They set the price. I got >$100 I'm my pocket than I was looking for here.
I've talked to people at my range. They buy stuff from FS and have no idea about NES. The market here just isn't that big.
