What makes people sell their items in the classifieds for close to retail prices? If I only have to pay a few more dollars for something bought new, seems silly to pay the asking price. Some stuff is reasonable, but not the majority. 4951

I think they same thing!  Like I see people advertising coach bags for sale.  WOW I can get them cheaper then what they want for them at Dillards.  or at the outlet online. Its rediculous.  Specially furniture.  Someone had an old parsons chair and wanted over 200 each for them.  I can get a new one at Steinmart for 60 bucks 4951

Classifieds are pretty ridiculous price wise these days. Some of my best finds though have been at Goodwill. Neat pieces for $5- $30 that can be repainted or refinished. Same goes for haam in humble. 4951

@FoFa:
 
It's about selling stuff that has absolutely no value to anyone whatsoever and trying to make a profit.
 
Yep, that about covers it.

Is $2.00 too much to ask for boys/mens basketball shorts? I have a pair of size large for Kingwood Mustang shorts listed for $5.00 - saw them at Randalls for over 20.00. I have a bicycle helmet that I was going to list - probably for ages 9 - 14. I was going to list for $4.00. Need opinions - are these overpriced? 4951

It's crazy. I have a feeling alot of people go to resale shops and garage sales find something and then resale it on here or kys They buy it at Ross see the original price and try to turn a profit. It's nuts. People need to do their homework and shop around before giving someone all their money 4951
