Title: FS: Oscar Push/Pull
Post by: Wienerdog on March 05, 2005, 11:44:33 am
$145 shipped USPS Priority

I didn't realize that
1. Kelsey ran out of these and
2. BYOAC'ers are looking for them

My cab has been 80% done for 1-2 years, and I've had a new Push/Pull Spinner boxed up for it.  I've moved on to other projects, so I'd be happy to sell it.  My original bill was $131, it's never been used and never been put in a CP:
1 Oscar Controls PUSH/PULL Spinner
1 Black Anodized DOT knob
1 USB mouse interface

Why are you charging $145 if you payed $131 total?  Its not a big loss, but I thought the point of this was to help others by selling your stuff a little cheaper to save people a hassle....

Because he can.  It's called 'profit.'  If someone wants it, and agrees that it's a fine price, then it'll sell.  If people don't want it at that price, they won't.  It's win-win.

To tell you the truth, if I had the money I'd be on that like white on rice!  I planned on getting Oscar Controls DOT spinner for over a year now and now that they are out of production $14 extra doesn't seem like too big of a deal to me.

I raise my fist and grumble at my stupid bills!  >:(

The buyer backed out, let me know if anyone else would like the spinner.

It's a high demand out-of-production item. His asking price is more than fair.

It's been sold and shipped.

For cholin:
My cost: $131
Paypal fees: $4.51
Shipping: $6.84

Total profit: $2.65

If anyone has the translucent blue Tron repro handle and is willing to sell it to me for a $2.65 profit, I would REALLY appreciate it.   ;)
