3notesAbar: "Should Soft start a RRP-guide for local items?"
I think it's a good idea.
I know there are serveral threads where SOFTies had contributed price info e.g. Sub's reviews will include the Retail Price. The "where to get what" thread has some price info. The "pedal board pictures", "gallery 200x" threads all have some price info there. But they're kind of here and there. It will be great if there's a sticky thread on Retail Prices, one for each guitar, bass, drums, keyboard category. As soon as a SOFTie buys a gear, he can just post the price. A consolidated view. Something like the SimLimSquare price list. wah biang, solid. :lol:
but horh, anyone has any idea how to do it?
I don't mind helping. Sub, you reading this? 8)
most importantly, is there any legal implications?
of course, such price guide must disclaim the necessary things lah, since none of us here represent the shops.
soft.com.sg for the local music shops will then become like the hardwarezone.com for SimLimSquare 8O

I think he totally got your point there, vintage just a nicer term for old, he could have won the 1957 strat back then and if we use your example, the price would have depreciated to zero by now. If the guy won it at a lucky draw, kept the thing in mint condition, i don't see why he shouldn't be able to charge near retail price for the thing? Its a free world after all.
After all, we do see people who bought "vintage" guitars and basses for like USD250 back then selling it now for nearly USD5,000. How i'd love for someone to give me a vintage jazz bass for free though! Any takers?

Drumnoob, maybe we fail to see the good things at times. I do that alot! But I know a few bassplayers who sell their stuff dirt cheap on classifieds. To me, they overshadow the occasional overpriced-item post. I see this alot especially in effects modules, but I'd stand corrected anytime. Regardless, We do give to our friends right? Right?? :?

the artist grumbled about the lack of understanding of real art
the metallist cant wait to stomp on the fake fans of metale
the extreme shredder/technicalist ponder about the speed of slowness
the minority raise against the rise and richer majority
some like to think why no one pay the bands, from metale forum to diy hardcore forum to this to that
and why do i worry about the px of used stuff when i know i shud have done my research prior to buying
and so, the pencilcase closes, not after collecting the monthly suscription of either cokelat, strawberry or normal flavour milk
bye bye

pai seh, when i said con-man i meant the person who "cheats your money" which in your case would be your "businessman" or whatever you call it.

again my point is there.
if he is selling at market 2nd hand price then isn't it fine?
he took the effort to queue for HOURS to buy something.
and the buyer lays his ass at home and wants to benefits from the sales too?
IF the buyer don't go to the sale he would have to buy the product at 1st hand price. or go to a second hand price.
Sale or not sale. doesnt matter.
Who doesnt wish to have more cash on hand for other gears?
you happy with the price, you buy. Not happy look for other sellers.
Simple.
Then we shall all now wait for buyers from sweelee sales to sell at 70% discount. Pls annouce that you are selling at 70% so that we can all queue up and raid your house.

I'd like to see what he does with his cash if he wins TOTO.
wraith: i was the one who used vintage. i was just using a guitar as a example. just like i am trying to giv an example of a machine depreciating. but he suddenly compare antiques. wth? got link?
PatheinRaindropMoe: maybe i should intro u to delphi forum poem king mr swingstar46.
geraldkoh: mine is the most active and yet u wanna close it.
redjackal: he is doing u a favour as a FRIEND. not to mention about people selling the same price as retail. so u tink as a friend it is ethical for him to treat u like a customer or friend?
redjackal: if sweelee ever has a 70% storewide discount, i guess our mr trolley man will be the first again. don't dream of getting any leftover tis time.
theblueark: totally no link? if i win toto so? i really get no link here. u mean i win toto i must giv up my winnings? my stand in this thread is sellers must put consideration in for their offers. wtf?
neuro182: ya i know. it has always been the case of willing buyers and sellers wat. i just trying to comment and remind people about the gd "karma" they can pass around.
