    PSA: Bad Actors in Classifieds

    Oh so NOW its acceptable to do that? Of course I "folded", if I broke even on that jacket I wouldve been happy. I am just trying to get rid of it and make some money back, and what money I received for the jacket corroborates that story. But unlike you, I dont get all butthurt that he is trying...

    You're going to have to explain this to me, I am responding to people responding to me. Shit, you tagged me twice by now with no real response. Am I not supposed to respond? Funny thing is nobody comments on the main argument I posted which is in post #89. Also I thought we were sharing Seinfeld...

    PSA: Bad Actors in Classifieds

    Camaraderie? Then why would I not want my friends to make a profit? If you sold it below market value, say fair market is $50, you sold it for $30, and that someone sold it for $100 then I personally dont see a problem. Its worth $30 to you (as you let it go for $30), and its worth $100 to...

    Nice backtracking. As an example; Let's pretend a new member asked you a question about a jacket, you answered, now that new member posted the jacket using the info he got from you. Wouldnt that make you an accessory to what you just define as "screwing people over"? Would you want to answer...

    Look at post 62, 63, 64, 65 especially ITT and read the entire thread, an example; So what are you implying then? We can ask questions only if it aligns with the almighty Jmax's vibe? I ask again, what is this forum for?

    PSA: Bad Actors in Classifieds

    You said it best man, its just gatekeeping. When I was newer I tried to buy from a well known member here but I mistyped on what the jacket brand is and he said he does not have *THAT* jacket (knowing damn well which jacket I meant) and not even 3 seconds later turned around and marked it as...

    I mean yeah, but this is a target of opportunity and I'm trying to make a sale. I could have hit up the dude that sold it to me, but he is selling so he can buy something else. Everyone on TFL can negotiate with me offline. Does not mean I will sell though.

    Yeah because I anticipated that people will lowball me anyways and if you want a certain price, you have to take that into account. so yeah it is a cool story indeed, "bro"

    PSA: Bad Actors in Classifieds

    But did you want to? All I am saying is people should have the option to sell for a profit if they like. Personally, within fair market value. I use Rin Tanaka's pricing + inflation - shipping. I always lose 50-60% of value on new items. The jacket I sold above, I actually sold at a loss...

    Who hasn't? I have also sold at a loss, I have broke even, I cover the shipping most of the time and mitigate their risk for them. And no, lacking the skill and capability to sell does not give you the moral high ground. In other words; You're not peaceful, you're just harmless. Lol.

    PSA: Bad Actors in Classifieds

    1. Sure but it is also the prerogative of the seller if he wants to sell it for that price (which means that its the value of the jacket for him) or higher. Its a transaction of two consenting adults. The subterfuge is annoying but we dont have to do any transactions with him moving forward. The...

    PSA: Bad Actors in Classifieds

    But thats his prerogative though, he owns it so he can sell it whenever at whatever price, shitty and I would probably stop selling to him at a discount. This kind of thing is very common in the car and watch community (especially Rolex), some people would buy a car or watch just to wait for the...

    PSA: Bad Actors in Classifieds

    Was he able to sell the jacket? Who bought it? Because the buyer and seller in that case seems like two consenting adults who put a price tag on something and they all agreed. Cant be one of us though, right? We know the worth of our things.

    Their return policy for returns is that it must be unworn with tags attached. I ripped of the tags and worn it already (and its awesome). Unfortunately this defect is on my back so I cant really see it lol up until I tried on the collar. So their solution is to send them this jacket, then they...
