So basicly you're saying that you scored that copy for 252 euro and now trying to resell it for 555$, right ?

Replacing my old and not so good quality copy with a better one. The weaker is landed on ebay and now is waiting for a catch. I'm a sinner I guess :oops:

That has deep tab dents on the booklet. The buyer didn't left me any feedback, and he's from the USA. I believe you bought some CDs for the sole purpose to re-sell it for good. I made some cash on some of my auctions this year and I'm happy with that. If some ppl. out there willing to pay insane amount of cash to a CD, I'll try to serve their needs the best I can. I'm still a buyer mainly, don't compare me to metalcdshark / extrememusic75 and the likes. I made like 4-6 great deals this year. They are living out of this shit. You can not do anything against this, so it's better to grab and take your part of the cake.

You don't have to find excuses and/or to pretend to be different from those two people (or chebanana) as there is nothing forbidden in these situations.
You can buy everything you want at the best price you can and sell it even for 10x.

I remember you were saying something different back on msn times, but no problem. I guess people change ^^

I want instead to focus on this russian seller http://www.ebay.com/sch/chouchoute777/m ... 146&_sop=3

I think this guy is selling his whole collection, but he's not really doing a good job in pricing the cds. Most are clearly overpriced, but sometimes he puts strange "lower than the usual" prices (either you overprice everything or nothing at all, right ?)

(I would buy multiple copies for this price !)

(lately sold in 1 minute by Ensiferum2k for 300$ !)

(going for 250-300$ all the times now)

Indeed, this is strange pricing. Congrats to whoever was aware of those - we'll probably see them for sale again soon (I already have them though :D ). And many of his cds will definitely end up at those sellers (no need to name 'em).
My best guess is that he just lost track of updated values or simply is selling them for aprox. the same he spend on them. At a quick look at his other listings, many of them are not totally off what you'd expect them to sell for.

Hard times takes control over me, and I revised my point of view. I guess you or the majority of us here would do the very same desperate acts to cash in if you'd be in the same shoes as I was/am. Cancer post treatment of my mom is just one of them. :(

No surprise from him :lol:

I'm not seeing listed that beated up Exumer for 500 euro, maybe he finally trashed it or gave to the cat to play some more ! :mrgreen:
