$750 after fees is $670 or so for the seller. Now if the seller searched 4-6 months for the shoe then it didn't fit him since he didn't get to try on first or bought them in the morning on a trip (with sales tax too) before his feet expanded then at $670 he is actually losing money.
Not sure where this ridiculous entitlement comes from. And chances are he doesn't know about styleforum neither. And if he lists here he would still need money to cover PayPal fee, shipping (an if he has no experience then 15-45 minute post office wait) and countless lowball offers. $750 is a pretty damn fair price for the seller. The seller shouldn't have to lose money so you can pay retail price on a pair of shoes. Should I go into leathersoul and demand them to sell me those new plaza boots for $400?
I get needing to sell them but drives me crazy when people look to turn a profit from it. So not my style...
I would image that is the only reason they bought them as well. Quite possibly...
We are purists. I can see why given someone's potential situation they could seek to maximize their profit. I agree though it feels similar to shelling out three times the ticket value for a nfl game to some hustler who could care less about the team.
Could have sold them here and saved a lot of eBay fees. At cost I would have bought them
I think we all would have...
I can't really tell what the edge trim color is.
He will have to get an extra $100 on eBay to cover their fees. It should be interesting to see what they go for, probably $850-$900.
I am still bitter I lost the #4 Chukkas. Been 3 months and still not over it...
