And you counter-offer, which at least starts a conversation on the book. At the price you're at there is zero chance of that happening. Or, leave it at the price it is at. Hell, double it to make it even higher. It is only two days, right? No I won't make it worse then it is but why is two days such a big deal? I don't sell comics that quickly Then make it four days. Or six. What's the big deal? Because I only post and bump comics three days in the week and making it any longer then it's supposed to be would be pointless If you actually wanted to sell the book you'd change a price you know to be wrong. What if your potential buyer sees it today? But if that'd be too much work then leave it for two more days. Or four, if it's too much work to change it Monday. It appears he mostly only listens to the stupid advice and largely ignores the good advice. I cannot blame that on a learning disability...I blame that on willful ignorance. What stupid advice did I follow here? I honestly don't care enough anymore to explain things to you. Good luck, you're going to need it. This is exactly what I'm talking about you say something and when I ask because I don't understand you get angry if I knew I wouldn't ask but thanks for the luck. For Petes sake, Gabe, for someone who posts as much as you do, you would think your writing skills would improve, if only a little bit. This last post of yours should be three sentences, not one. If you want people to take you seriously, work on developing writing, grammar and comprehension skills that aren't overshadowed by a ten year old. Three sentences? I only see two at most and what does my grammar have to do with how seriously people take me? Because of being professional? I know I'm not the best but I have improved if you haven't noticed. There's more the one reason for sure but the big one was boardies didn't like me saying nice comics.

I see so it's a mix of things but when I posted sales threads people would just nice bomics and then leave. Haha, your sales thread were a classic. I guess it was only fair that you got the same message that you were leaving on everyone's thread. Yeah I suppose but I didn't mean it in a bad way though I think it's cool to see all these awesome comics people have

Hell, double it to make it even higher. It is only two days, right? No I won't make it worse then it is but why is two days such a big deal? I don't sell comics that quickly You won't sell them quick because your prices are not in line with what books like that go for. You just don't get it. You're really clueless. I agree for the most part and some comics I really underpriced and people still didn't ask anything about them and I can't sell them for free That should tell you one of two things: 1) You're not really underpriced or 2) You are holding onto comics that are literally worthless, meaning nobody wants them at any price. There are literally thousands of these books out there, it's only logical that you would acquire a few of them in your career as a comic book flipper. Have you ever heard the saying "There's an for every seat"? Well, forget it, it's not true. There's tons of stuff out there that you can't pay someone to take. You are obviously sitting on some of that stuff, so get rid of it. Give it to the Goodwill, or better yet, give them away to kids (the kid friendly ones anyway). In any event, just get rid of them, if nothing else, you'll free up some space, and you won't be constantly reminded of the mistake you made when you bought them every time you see them. I agree most of what I have is overpriced junk but I can give a good example ASM 101 6.5/7.0 for 75 bucks and now one wanted it and I know that's a good price This is where credibility comes into play. First, the grade of the book is either 6.5 OR 7.0 (or another, likely lower grade), it can't be both. You need to learn to grade, so that you can say exactly what grade a given book is in, unless it's a third party graded book. If you're selling a book and you think it grades 6.5 to 7.0, call it a 6.5. Nobody is ever going to complain that you sold them an undergraded book, but if you don't have enough confidence in your grading ability to assign a firm grade to the book, most people won't even bother with you. Also, and if you don't understand anything else, understand this: A collectible, be it a comic book, car, coin or anything else, is worth exactly what someone will pay for it, nothing more. The amount you paid or the price in a price guide means absolutely zero. Let's say you have book "X" that you paid $20.00 for, and the guide value is $75.00. You put it on eBay and it sells for $10.00. What is that book worth? The answer is $10.00, because that was what the high bidder was willing to pay. You need to learn some simple economic lessons or you will never get ahead. I only take issue with you saying that no one will take him seriously if he calls something a 6.5/7.0, there are several reasons no one would take him seriously and that is not one of them. I see lots of "long time, well respected" boardies do the exact same thing and no one cares. Point taken, and I agree with you 100 percent. My point is it goes back to his (lack of) credibility. For most of those other boardies, I have confidence that if they call a book 6.5 to 7.0, it's at least a 6.5, because every book that I have ever bought on these boards has been in at least the condition advertised, if not better. In Gabes case, I have zero confidence that the book would be at least 6.5. My grading isn't that terrible and is this lack of trust because I'm still new to this? Or I haven't given you any reason to trust my grading skills?

Ok thanks for fixing that and you're right no one is going to point out a underpriced comic because it will cost them money they could have made

That was sarcasm I got it right this time.

I'm not angry, I just don't care anymore. I'm not rooting for you to fail, but it gets more difficult to root for your success when I see you on great advice given by people who are very successful in the business you want to be in. I apologize I misunderstood it just frustrating when people say they understand but then later on ask me them same questions again.

I see plenty of people assign grades of what they think the comic is even when things are being graded here on the boards. I understand that everything is what someone will pay for it but there's also a market for this that's what I'm getting at. I've read about economics online but I went with the basic stuff

If you have trouble pricing how do you know your junk is overpriced? No the grade was right as it was graded by the boardies but it had a lot of distributors ink and I call tell junk comics because they won't sell no matter what I price it at. Whereas overpriced comics just need a price adjustment

Or he really likes owning coverless books and wants to keep it at least two more days. no I already read that comic many times over but I also know this isn't a easy sale Sheldon Cooper has a better grasp of sarcasm than you do.

What stupid advice did I follow here?

With all due respect to the OP I can't imagine that book being worth more than $50-75 So when you come out with an asking price of likely more than two times fair market value it doesn't do anything to instill or create buyer confidence Or assist with seller credibility Ok but I don't understand what credibility has to do with this unless they would think I'm trying to rip them off? It's a OBO and right now I'm testing the waters to see if I'll get any offers for it. I like to think the questions being asked are comig from a child but I know that it's coming from someone in their mid-20s. So sad... I don't think it's sad to ask about something you're not sure about I may not be as smart as you guys but at least I'm trying. It's sad how a 27 year old can't figure out how over pricing a book can impact their credibility as a legit seller. You seem very sure of your pricing methods and it makes total sense to you however your prices don't make any sense for the reasons mentioned by the other posters. It seems like you're hoping to sucker a new collector in over paying for your book just like the seller did to you. Gabe, the market for that book is going to be very, very difficult. Overpriced books can be a big turn off. Being at the high end of GPA is one thing but books that are in the stratosphere, like yours for this mangled, coverless ASM #7 just make legit buyers/collectors laugh or scoff and move on and if you don't think buyers make "mental notes" of sellers, you are wrong. You are showing this inexperience over 8 FB pages too no less. LISTEN TO WHAT GATOR IS TELLING YOU. Also, I am not surprised to see that you did not listen to my advice about cleaning up your online presence. You still have My Little Pony and far right American political stuff on your FB page. Seriously, you are CANADIAN. WTF? Share if "You Think (Obama) Wants Civil Unrest to Disrupt the Election" - Are you out of your freaking mind? Also, what is with this "Meninist" ? Your rant against Emma Watson was the icing on the cake. She has accomplished more in 15 minutes than you have in your entire life. Get an education. Or, at the very least, understand that excessive posting of social/political views online, generally not a good thing. As an employer, if I saw your online postings, your application would be going straight to the garbage. I don't like her views and feminist logic so I'll leave it at that. I know that the comic book community is small don't get me wrong but I also know that you can ask whatever you want because it's your comic and as you said they'll just scoff and move on, that said it only means I'll be sitting with a overpriced comic and with what gator told me I said that I would change the price after the weekend if I get no bites. Why wait so long to lower the price? Only two days not that long 2 days wasted. I had a complete low grade ASM 7 a while back and that was even difficult to move at $120. I see now I'll change it later then Later is perfect. Yes later it's not as if I'm putting it off till monday because I'm still dealing with a couple people and comics

With all due respect to the OP I can't imagine that book being worth more than $50-75 So when you come out with an asking price of likely more than two times fair market value it doesn't do anything to instill or create buyer confidence Or assist with seller credibility Ok but I don't understand what credibility has to do with this unless they would think I'm trying to rip them off? It's a OBO and right now I'm testing the waters to see if I'll get any offers for it. I like to think the questions being asked are comig from a child but I know that it's coming from someone in their mid-20s. So sad... I don't think it's sad to ask about something you're not sure about I may not be as smart as you guys but at least I'm trying. It's sad how a 27 year old can't figure out how over pricing a book can impact their credibility as a legit seller. You seem very sure of your pricing methods and it makes total sense to you however your prices don't make any sense for the reasons mentioned by the other posters. It seems like you're hoping to sucker a new collector in over paying for your book just like the seller did to you. Gabe, the market for that book is going to be very, very difficult. Overpriced books can be a big turn off. Being at the high end of GPA is one thing but books that are in the stratosphere, like yours for this mangled, coverless ASM #7 just make legit buyers/collectors laugh or scoff and move on and if you don't think buyers make "mental notes" of sellers, you are wrong. You are showing this inexperience over 8 FB pages too no less. LISTEN TO WHAT GATOR IS TELLING YOU. Also, I am not surprised to see that you did not listen to my advice about cleaning up your online presence. You still have My Little Pony and far right American political stuff on your FB page. Seriously, you are CANADIAN. WTF? Share if "You Think (Obama) Wants Civil Unrest to Disrupt the Election" - Are you out of your freaking mind? Also, what is with this "Meninist" ? Your rant against Emma Watson was the icing on the cake. She has accomplished more in 15 minutes than you have in your entire life. Get an education. Or, at the very least, understand that excessive posting of social/political views online, generally not a good thing. As an employer, if I saw your online postings, your application would be going straight to the garbage. I don't like her views and feminist logic so I'll leave it at that.

Why wait so long to lower the price? Only two days not that long By definition we have already established that you are hurting your credibility with that price on the asm7. Anything more than two seconds without changing the price is too long ! That said if people see me change the price down to about 75 bucks won't that lead them to believe they can lowball me? Considering that $75 is even too high, the answer is no. That's good to know then

And you counter-offer, which at least starts a conversation on the book. At the price you're at there is zero chance of that happening. Or, leave it at the price it is at. Hell, double it to make it even higher. It is only two days, right? No I won't make it worse then it is but why is two days such a big deal? I don't sell comics that quickly Then make it four days. Or six. What's the big deal? Because I only post and bump comics three days in the week and making it any longer then it's supposed to be would be pointless If you actually wanted to sell the book you'd change a price you know to be wrong. What if your potential buyer sees it today? But if that'd be too much work then leave it for two more days. Or four, if it's too much work to change it Monday. Hmmm I did think of that and it's not that's it too much work it's that I don't want to keep bumping it as it will give the people the impression that I'm desperate and there's not many people online at the time I bump it
