1. yes it is his own discretion. im not asking him to change his price, am i?
2. im not being sore. im just leting people know. and what im saying are facts. its up to the buyer if he is OK with buying a guitar from a person who is making money out of it.
3. you only know half of the story. so allow me.

i honestly have no beef with anyone selling stuff more than what they paid for it. i wont specify it but ive sold Krazysell a guitar which he is now selling for MUCH higher than what he negotiated with me for and you dont see me saying anything on his ads, do you?
that is because he is a nice person. he negotiates to lower the price but
he has manners. i wont fault him for trying to make a buck from buying and selling as long as he is honest in his dealings.
you however, mr musikal, you are rude and arrogant and i will not allow you, and no one should for that matter, to treat people around here with your attitude.
i asked you nicely. you didnt have a price on the amp so i made proposal, nicely:
but what was your response?
'
you know what you do with that idea of yours - take it and shove it up your ass'
and after that, i did tell you youre attitude is unbecoming and uncalled for. and i will not stand up for it. and you will hear from me.
so here we are.
ive posted exactly how i approached him (as you can read). i was nice in asking. plus, he didnt have a price on the amp so my $50 offer was a shot in a dark,
flexible to what his response might be (true: i bought a vox pathfinder 15 in soft.com for $100, a couple of of years ago thus my starting offer, i regret selling to with my epi goldtop as a package).
you can qualify that as lowballing but i honestly was not. it was a genuine honest offer. but he has the audacity to talk back like that?
so its not about the fact that he is selling it for more than he got it for. the point is, he, in one point of acquiring this guitar, had to negotiate with the owner. he probably was nice because he wanted to get a good deal. and perhaps the seller was nice to him as well.
but now the tables have turned. he is the seller and people wanting to buy, negotiating are at his mercy to give them a good deal. who does he think he is to be rude and arrogant like this? wasnt he in the same position before? and now, because he is the seller, he can act like he can speak lowly and cruel to his buyers?
also like ive mentioned, i dont give a rats ass if he sells this guitar for $2000 for all i care. it really depends if someone will find it worth to buy at that price that determines if it sells or not. again, ive seen people here sell stuff they
bargained hard and bought
from me. and i dont say sh*t about them, do i?
Krayzysell is one. but this kid knows his manners. so i dont anything about him. i let him be. i let him do his thing.
musikal however is rude, ignorant and arrogant. i dont have to convince anyone to see that but what i can do is show everyone the facts. if these facts hurt his sale, it is only because someone has brought it up. and that someone is me.
he was rude. this is my version of rudeness, with truth in it. quid pro quo.
call it 'an axe to grind'. hell yeah. i will grind this axe till its dull.
best of luck in selling it. hope it has served u well!
