    No sale, no money. What is lost is the opportunity at making a commission.

     

    Right. Try to think outside of the box on this one, ok 'lok?

     

    PS Hope you made some nice pickups at SD.

     

    Right, but there is a difference between not making money and losing money. Opportunity lost and all that.

     

    I equate the squandered opportunity to earn over 1k as a loss of 1k. C'mon dude, surely you see what's lost here is not just "opportunity." Don't you run a comics empire!?!

    I only LOSE money when I sell books for less than I pay for them. I lose the opportunity to make money when I price books too high. DTA is an insufficiently_thoughtful_person, but his pricing this book at a very high price doesn't hurt him in the pocketbook - only in the ability to get MORE money.

  3. And btw, don't consignors LOSE money when they dont' sell consigned books?

     

    There's a hole in yer argument the size of Roseanne's keister.

     

    No. Consigners NEVER lose money. That's why I LOVE being a consigner. You don't make a big pile, but there's no cash outlay.
