Has anyone else noticed some of the ludicrous prices people are asking for stuff on places like F*cebook Marketpl*ace and groups in the last couple of years?
What are people thinking ? I have often thought I just be out of touch with the value of stuff but it just seems like people want astronomical prices for things.
For those who don’t know, which I assume is most, I work in the entertainment industry on the production side so regularly deal with equipment for live events, amplifiers, microphones, stage lights, musical instruments, and I’ve noticed certainly in my field that people are flogging any old 30 year old tat for 3 and 4 times what anyone would have reasonably given for it a couple of years back. These items aren’t in high demand either, and usually never get sold It’s baffling how some people seem to ask for more than the new value and get quite upset when someone calls them out on it.
Has anyone else noticed this, particularly if you have a bit of a niche area?
