Throttlebender 0 #1 September 2, 2010 Just needing to vent for a second. I'm not against anyone making money but I had a rig sell out from under me a couple of weeks ago while trying to buy a first rig and just saw it back up for sale with a $1200 price increase and with a slightly less expensive main....and without the extra goodies that it originally sold with. Shit That is all. Carry on.Life expands or contracts in proportion to one's courage. ~Anais Nin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wings-n-Things 0 #2 September 2, 2010 Write an e-mail to the seller and offer the original price if the seller adds all the goodies.Card carrying member of the Nanny State Liberation Front Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Throttlebender 0 #3 September 2, 2010 Already bought a rig. It just sucks a bit because I was pretty excited about having found that one originally and then to have it sell out from under me by only fifteen minutes and then price jacked. Oh well, someone will pay the new price I'm certain. Capitalism at it's finest. It reminds me of real estate speculation.Life expands or contracts in proportion to one's courage. ~Anais Nin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You sound lie a newbie to the auction world...Obviously, an In the know buyer, bought it, broke out the good parts, put in whatever he had laying around, and relisted it, he is either jumping the removed parts, or likely has them listed seperatly.. Simply business, no need to get upset that someone beat you to it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Throttlebender 0 #5 September 3, 2010 Oh I know what it is. Just chaps my ass to see something go from a nice price to a higher price at a lesser value when I would have loved to have had it. I would have loved it and pet it and squeezed it and named it George.
