Is it normal people sell used stuff for the same price as new stuff

I live in a small town and someone is posted 1 reusable shopping and wants to sell it for $10.00. when I bought my reusable beg it was brand new and I paid $6.00. For years people posted clothes at are the same brand as they sell in Walmart and it's posted as the same price as Walmart sells clothes.

    There are cases where items do gain value (or the older version is more valuable).

    However, the real reason people list a lot of this stuff... is that ultimately someone buys it because they are either incapable or too lazy to go to stores and shop (some people have no transportation, have medical conditions, etc).

    Why not just ignore them. Do the internet shopping that makes sense to you...

  • Yep, delusions abound when it comes to selling shit. Don't forget all the "artists" who think randomly splashing paint on a canvas or gluing garbage to other garbage makes it valuable, or the ones selling their ratty ass old shoes, socks, underwear etc. for 50+ bucks to perverts. 🤣

    Nope not even normal, when I sell my things I increase the price ( but it would depend on how rare the item is. ).

      Some people think they have a rare item. What makes an item rare is how many there are and howm many people are willing to buy it

      Or...rent an armored car with a guard, go buy the clock, hurriedly place clock in briefcase handcuffed to guards arm. Exit with a purpose, police escort would be a nice bonus. Purchase airtime on local TV stations, host an "auction" for the clock with nothing but shills bidding. "Sell" the clock for 2 million dollars. Get on local news for finding this bargain treasure worth 2 million for only $1500. Somehow secretly return the clock to the previous owner, watch them make a bigger fool of themself as they try to sell it for 2 million.

    If I were to sell something used I would lower the price compared to the same item in the store. It naturally loses some of its value and you can't expect a used item to be exactly the same quality

    People amways get cheap from walmart and sell at goodwill and then buy again

    Maybe they expect the buyers to haggle down?
