Supply/Demand. He as the seller has the supply, we as consumers have demand. We can choose to buy there or not. Why blame him and why the continuous lamantations from people doing so?
I bring again to your attention my "bought a Stalingrad medal for 5 bucks from Granny at the market". Then the first thing many do is to try to sell it for $60+. Then when it doesn't sell, run,run,run and blame Igor. Makes no sense.:thumbsdown Try selling items for a lower margin of profit and then see people buy more.
The hypocrasy of it all is once people get an award, they run to his site, look at the prices then think that their's is the same price. So they list it for 10 bucks less and think that this is some kind of great deal.
The fellas with the websites are businessmen. You can choose to buy from them or not. Can't afford an item? Well, no different than not being able to buy a Big Mac. So why blame them?
READ my posting a few months ago on prices and what forum members would pay. FREE consumer info. LISTEN to what they said. Then perhaps sell Granny's Stalingrad medal for $20 and actually make a sale.:idea
