Random Rants
-
but i like sh!tting up everyon's sale's thread, it's big fun (see below for example)
http://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=1535.msg97463#msg97463
here's my rant:
i have spent about 26d 15h 22m on the IH forum & it's still not enough time
mad face doesn't really make it a rant huh? HAHahAhaHaHAHAHAHHA
-
yes we all guilty of the chitchat in sale pages as Lando pointed out recently
trying to do my part and heed Lando's advice going forwardbut it's really the neg comments that I was ranting about
those that only serve to inhibit a sale
I feel like if someone has an issue with a product price that should be handled by PM
if an item is out of line, the lack of any response should speak enoughnow in the instance of straight up flipping a deal for profit
I got no issue if someone wants to call that out -
1st i do agree with you jaco in relation to negative comments in sales threads. i see plenty of things i think are crap & it sells. i also see plenty of good things that don't sell (go figure)
my comments make little to no difference. truth be told i just like f^ckin with you, as it is our pretty well documented history.
new rant. the market is fickle & to be honest it makes no sense to me some of the things that stick around or get sold. so i do what i do & make my purchases & keep my comments to a minimal unless i am bumping in my own madmonday way & sales as the trends dictate will/won't happen.
what's the big deal about flipping for a profit? isn't that part of business in general?? something is only worth what someone is willing to pay.
& what the heck is FWIW
as seul would say, "shit is overrated"

thank you el, a hero in the world tour & you have general knowledge that slow monday is lacking

I got no issue if someone wants to call that outThat's the reason I was ranting. The Guy most likely flipped the sale for a profit. If he didn't… well that's another story, but he deserved to be called on it. Other than that what you said is also very true. I can understand if someone wants a little profit like $10, but this Guy jacked it up to $400 from $200.

if he didn't then you shit up his thread
I would have started with a polite PM -

You use this train of thoughts when dealing with mates as well?.. Don't get me wrong: back in the days when I was buying and selling records, buying low and selling high was my modus operandi as well… But I never applied it when dealing with mates... Always cut them a deal... The guy selling these jeans at 200 % should be banned from buying from Self Edge for starters... And you know why?.. Cause Kiya was selling these to give people a good deal... This c*** more than likely bought to resell... If not he would've passed the deal... 200 $...
And what is this BULLSHIT about "being polite" about it?.. Call him out... He's selling them at 200 %... I don't care whàt his motives are... Buyer needs to know this... Trash his thread, use the biggest font you are allowed to use, preferable in a bold purple…
Also: I like chitchat in my sales threads... I love random posts in my sales threads... As long as they're not spambots posting, I'm all good... Just adds a little personal touch to a cold sales thread y'know... Not asking Lando to step off but hey this is the "Random rants" thread right?.. And I'm hangover and fairly pissed off right?.. Right...

Quoted for truth…there's nothing more to add

my sales speak for themselves, no? i am the devil's advocate & don't take the popular stance. let's be for real, we all aren't mates. i treat folks the way i like to be treated & i think always give more than fair prices, i'm also as straight forward as they come & even do payment plans with more than one buyer & all that kind of jazz. in any event i really think if someone is willing to pay what ever, than so be it. i mean what does not get marked up when being sold? it's fair for a vendor to mark up an item, but an independent seller can't do the same thing? get the f^ck out of here.
And what is this BULLSHIT about "being polite" about it?.. Call him out…
not bullshit that is the person that wrote the comment personal style. for the most part he is even polite when busting my balls. now seul, you are impolite even when being nice :D, i deal with it & move on. doesn't take away from you as a good person.
Also: I like chitchat in my sales threads… I love random posts in my sales threads...
i will make sure to continue to post random comments in your thread. some are good, some are pointless & annoying, all personal preference i guess
i need to stay out of rants
edited to make the quotes all nice like
-
Naaah man… Capitalism is dead lad... Fuck jacking your price on a pair of jeans cause it's "OOP"... If an independent seller feels the need to make a profit, let him get a fecking job as a retailer...
Nudge nudge to Lando and his 500$ 1634s…
Alright - enough out of me... Heading to work...

i guess i am not an internet dude & so for the most part treat things like the real world. why is it i can't buy low & sell high without getting my sales thread thrashed? i don't go into big or selfedge & say you bought all that for xyz so your price should be this. why would i do it to joe blow selling some overrated jean or shirt or shoe horn?
i'm just ranting
who the hell are you all to determine a person can/can not set a price. it's funny that folks say kiya was throwing a deal. really i look at it as a good business transaction being as how it builds traffic to his store & god knows what he paid, but no one shits up his thread or store & that is all my major point is. i can go on but the rant is losing steam
this stuff is funny
