JB357Mag,
We aren't pissed per sae, just tired of hearing it. It's akin to people asking right now, "why is .22 LR so hard to find?" It's pedantic and frankly, who cares. Look at cars, there's a lot of cars out there that their owners want way too darn much for. Do we complain about it? No. We live within a budget, know what we are willing to spend and if the owner of said commodity that I am willing to purchase isn't willing to come down, let them hang onto their vehicle for longer. I would rather just politely refuse to pay that much, wait a week later and get a call from owner asking if I would still pay what I offered initially (actually how I got my second to last car).
Also, I submit this: Some people love the thrill of the hunt/chase/sale: They list something higher, wait for someone to make an offer then the quibbling commences. Generally, I hate this method b/c it's a psychological ploy to try to get you to come to a common ground, usually still higher than what you are willing to pay. But subconsciously, you think you are coming to consensus with the seller.

thisIt's prolly listed at $200 over cost on Armslist so,you're getting the INGO discount.
I have done a deal with an ATF officer before. Just FYI.
Just saw Buds has new RIA 1911's for $329.00
One posted (used) in the classifieds for $500.00
If some nut actually buys it for $500.00 it is on him for not doing his home work.

If you're worried that you may accidentally reply, "I'll take it!" and accidentally drive to meet the seller, then accidentally hand over way more money than you should, you maybe want to add the seller to your ignore list.
Adding people to your ignore list - that you find distasteful for what ever reason - is pretty dang easy. Then you can get on your life.

I'm glad u can move on to a cold one. I have OCD and keep from skimming the for sale adds and looking for a high price. I'll be up all night. Please which add is it? I need to get some sleep so I can go to the preview tomorrow before the auction.
$100 over? That's nothing.
Every once in a while there's a knife that pops up for $300 over direct sticker cost in the WTS section
Long story short, there's items where sticker cost doesn't reflect quality or demand, so the second someone scores it, and wants to sell it, there's a whole new higher secondary market

IMO people put way too much into MSRP just like they do a vehicle and KBB value. I just had a truck for sale recently that KBB at $4500 but I knew it was worth way more then that. It sold for $7500 on a friends car lot. Thats a big difference. Same for guns. Its worth what someone will pay for it.

INGO formula:
OP: Complaint
Poster: Complaint about complaining
Poster: Complaint about complaint about complaining.
Poster: I agree with the original complaint and will complain about the complaining complainers who complained about the complaint.
I'd like to complain about this complainers complaint about this complaint.
Does this make me a complainer?
