[RBW] Re: Supply and Demand is a weird thing
I find selling stuff to be kind of hard. It's not the parting with stuff, it's just dealing with posting it, answering the emails and then getting it all packed. The reality is that my actual experience with selling things has been great. I posted a bunch of stuff here a while back and it all sold within like 24hrs or so. Everyone was great to deal with and getting the stuff out was pretty smooth. I underestimated shipping but ultimately I was looking to make space here at home and get items that should be in use out in the world. I think I've only purchased one thing from a group member, a Quickbeam frame a few years back and that went smoothly. I since sold that frame to a list member along with my old Rambouillet. The sales of both those big ticket items went smoothly and booth frames seem to have found good homes and put to use. I consider this group to a be a community of sorts and like passing stuff along to folks here by people who seem to genuinely love Rivendell and Rivish parts. Next miserably rainy day here I'll most likely organize some more stuff for sale. --mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.
