With the right Seller I have seen rediculous prices lattely enough that I have been pushed out of many items

On the other hand fantastic bargains can be had looking for Listings that are not worded just right or if the Seller is not known or even well known


If your planning on selling items a good idea would be to throw up a Post to let peole know to go look
I've seen the same thing. Many well known GB sellers do VERY well on their realized prices. I've been bid out of the park on a number of items.
However, I've also gotten some bargains because I search the listings for bad titles. Sometimes, I find underpriced guns that no one else is bidding on due to poor exposure because of a poorly titled or worded listing. I won't bid on a gun if the photos aren't clear and show a complete "walkaround" of the gun. (Once bitten, twice shy).
