[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 4134484, member: 3099"] For the rare occasion that I sell something, I always check new price (or comparable) and adjust down from that based on condition. If it sells it sells, if it don't I'll go elsewhere or keep it. I see two scenarios here often. Someone overpaid because they "wanted it bad" then doesn't understand when nobody will give them a breakeven deal. The other is a pistol that's basically all aftermarket...Sights, trigger, controls, stippling, slide cuts or replacement slide, ceracoat, 2 crappy kydex holsters and then price it all at 3-4. times what you can buy one for new at a store. We've all seen G19s on here tricked out for way more than a brand new Glock goes for. Most people don't realize all that custom stuff and aftermarket internal fire control parts actually detracts from value, but here they are trying cash out when they need gas. [/QUOTE]
