So I'm having this sale and some girl comes in asking the price of my Vegas Money Pool. I told her it's 100k (which is the lowest on Yopriceville) and she just calls me a scammer and leaves.

People these days.. How hard is it to get a price check before assuming things?

Yes, but how does assuming I'm a scammer help anything? Did she expect me to take 500c for it? :lol:

(Maybe I would

True. This makes me wonder if anyone will ever come by and buy it.

Same way you assuming all folks even know what a price guide is?
It doesn't help anything...at all!

been just a newer player than never heard of a price guide

Nope they don't seem, but I'd be glad to introduce a price guide or 2 to them, but they poof too fast.

That is obnoxious. Not everyone follows the guides but if they don't, they have no right to call the seller a scammer. If people don't like your price, they should politely decline and then scoot. This is why I use the AH or trading section of the forums instead of events.

Yes, I totally agree. I know of some people who used really outrageous prices and probably didn't know they were pricing so high. Just ask them if they can lower it or don't even bother buying.

Price guides mean nothing. If I want to sell my Black Mafia for 500c, I'll do it. If I want to buy Pink Retros for 10c, I'll make an event. My item, my price. Your item, your price. And if [said individual] doesn't like it, then they can take themselves to a different event.

True, but how does calling the seller a scammer help anything? Besides that, 100k is pocket change.

I call it pocket change and I only have 64k right now :lol:
