The worst thing about selling some of your collection...

HI all.
The worst thing about selling some of your collection...

Probably the rude and just unfriendly buyers. A shame to sell to people that just don't have basic friendliness and courtesy.

I know what you mean. Seems everybody is a game watch scholar and boy they are quick to message and tell you what its worth.lol.

Hi.
It's really funny. We could probably have a huge thread about all of the stories. One of my latest was a guy who contacted me about the Dukes watch. He offered $100 and really expected me to take it for some reason. He stated they that $100 is what they "typically" go for. I told him I sold many of the Dukes watches on eBay in the past 2 years for about $200 - $225 and they sell quick. I actually sold this last one last week for $200 also. He was basing his appraisal on a single eBay sale that only. It was an auction for a Dukes game watch and a Dukes calculator watch which sold for $200.

One of the craziest situations is that the low ballers don't believe they are low ballers. For some crazy reason in their minds it is not a low ball offer. I really don't mind low ball offers though. I just let the offer sit and they help to sell the item. Other people see the offers pending and they quickly buy the watch at full price. I have sold many this way.

Ah, I could go on and on.

I thinned out the collection a little. I needed some money for a trailer I'm building. I think most of the rest will stay in the collection.
I hope these watches aren't lost forever. Most of the buyers were invited to this forum to stay in touch. Many are already members.
This is great so we can keep a nice close knit community and the watches will be preserved within it.

If anyone want to sell a watch please post notice here first so the watches can pssibly stay within the our small group.
