Yep outrageous!
I am getting really sick of people overpricing everything. Everyone is so greedy with no remorse they are ripping off the honest person.
This goes for anything, looking at motorcycles for example, a 2005 Ninja 250, "retail" yes I said "retail", so a dealership that has overhead in a place and the bike, a warranty and legal backing when selling you the bike, in KBB for motorcycles is worth $1945 and private trade in is worth $1285, so put even a perfect one with low miles worth $1800 tops from a private seller....they want $2800 for it!!!!!!!!!! I asked does it come with two or something for that price??
I had a 1994 Volvo 240 DL, great condition, all maintainence done over the years(as I was a cert Volvo mechanic for years) put it on craigslist for $500, KBB said $2500 at the time it was worth. Sold it to some kid in 10 min, whos family owned a shop working on old volvos for $400 as his first car, and he wanted a Volvo so bad he actually hugged me. That felt good and was 110% the right thing to do. Why.... I had 3 cars already plus "it" made 4, why be some greedy jerk looking to rip someone off???
It really deeply saddens me to think I have a young son growing up in this world of greedy, selfish, spoiled, self-entitled people.
