WHy is this so cheap?

[nate_dennis]

Anyone have any ideas why a music dealer in denver is selling a 38 and it's this cheap? Granted it's early in the auction, but they never start below $250 or so. Any thoughts? Thanks.

I don't know. I'm more used to seeing ad's like this:

That is so sick. I wish I could live somewhere like that! Would be nice. *sigh*

They probably started cheap as they have to move it on. Some people list high hoping to get a buyer, others list low coz they need it to be sold and hope the price will go up with interest.

The best sales I have had are the ones I started low and everyone jumps on, but you have to be prepared for a low price if it happens.

The lower the starting bid, the cheaper the listing fee.

That's easy...because they want you to buy it!

Expect the auction to heat up in the final six hours.

Yeah, what maddogg said. The lower the starting cost the lower the listing fees. I saw a Studer side console start at 9.99 a couple weeks ago. Of course when it was all done it when for close to $6000.00.

The front panel on that 38 is falling off. I don't know if I'd buy it.
