Question Honest Question

Ok so i was just wondering did i over price my ponies for sale? Im just trying to get rid of extras and make a little money, we have fallen on some hard times.
Are my prices too high or is it because i don't have tons of feedback? or the other everyone is on a tight budget as well?

here is my sales thread I even have lots of pic's

Thanks, Chris

Hi Chris,
Many people are on tight budgets these days with the economy (as I'm sure you've heard that a million times already). I'm not good with g3 prices though so I'm not sure if they're overpriced. I think most of it does have to do with the tight budgets though..
Hasn't been too good for sellers these days but great for buyers

Nothing wrong with your prices they seem fair, except for the so softs I'd go lower on least one of those. It's a competitive time of year to sell and the economy's slow. Your photos are great, the descriptions accurate. If you seriously need to move them fast/make some money try offering a deal on taking multiples, or a free shipping deal if you spend over a set amount. Gives your ad a little edge over the competition. Also maybe add a link in your sig for your sale ad, that helps because every time you post people will see it.


PMing you about one fakie!

I looked at your listings, I though that the Star catchers were a couple dollars high, but, otherwise thought the prices looked good.
If you had one I needed, I would buy one. It just so happens I have those ones already..
That's probably the case with a lot of the ones you have listed. It's not that your prices are bad, they're just common enough where a lot of collectors already have them.
Though there are always people starting a collection, so I wouldn't give up selling them yet!
I have a bunch like that myself..
