I wouldn’t dream of putting stuff on here for more than I paid for it under those circumstances. If you’ve benefited from someone elses generosity then pass it on, don’t try and make money out of it.
“Mates rates”. I’ve bought a few things off of STW from regulars that turned out to be alot more worn than was advertised. It seems subjectivity goes hand in hand with ‘mates rates’ (i.e. ‘oh I avoid ebays fees’ ..no you know if you advertised it on ebay there is a high chance you’d get a Paypal chargeback’).
On STW you advertise what you feel is a fair price. At the end of the day the item only sells if its fairly priced. That could mean anything.
I wouldnt class £7 as a profit would you? After all, I haven’t factored in an hourly rate for the whole procedure etc 😉
I wonder how many of the pre-yen/£ price explosion items that are sold on here are sold at close to their pre price-rise RRP?
As I said, I’d rather someone sold something at a fair price for the quality of item than care about how much the person had paid for it themselves. I’ve had 3 sets of forks that desperately needed a service (not the Z1’s) and a frame that was photographed from its best angles.
