that "Don't sell it" feeling

[GAS KING]

MF'ing powerful feeling when you've got something for sale........people are interested.......but yer gut is saying "NO! DO. NOT. SELL. IT!"

[Dave]

Sell your matamp.


And everything else.

I still regret selling some gear, until I have came to the conclusion that I should just never be attached to them.

The only gear I'm not selling is my Washburn N1 for sentimental reasons. Everything else can be sold if I had to.

I sometimes wish I could start over completely, but I'm pretty happy with what I have.

This thread is referring to a bass.

[Elessar [Sly]]

Yeah I've had that a few times. Almost fighting it now... I REALLY need to sell some gear.

[sleewell]

terrible time to be selling right now, i would avoid it at all costs if possible.

[phrophus]

I've got a gut feeling that's telling to sell my 7 strings nao, so I can buy something much cooler. I'm not hesitant at all, just lazy as feck.

Was looking at a pic I saved of my Randall, from the store who sold it when they ebayed it. I had a sad.

This....sold a mint 6505+ on CL several weeks ago and I struggled getting $600 for it. A brand new one in GC didn't look any cleaner than this one. I wouldn't have let it go for that normally but I needed the cash at that moment. Saw a mint dual rec on the Dallas CL yesterday and it looks brand new....priced at $900 and it's just sitting there. I remember when you would struggle finding one for $1,100. Great time to buy but def not sell.

This and this. Trading seems to be popular now, but if you are like me (and most other gearwh*res); you are so specific in what you have versus what you want it becomes really tough to define that in an easy to explain sort of way...

[GAS KING]

Before HC went down, I wasn't having much trouble selling anything?

Although, I wasn't trying to sell amps that already saturate the market.

[sleewell]

last year i did a lot trading plus adding cash on my end. was a great way to upgrade without spending a lot. so far this year i have just bought stuff but have really found great deals.

[Mark Starr]

I personally try to avoid selling in the current climate if at all possible...not the best time to "buy to try" with the intention of not keeping it.

I don't know.... About a month ago, I put three of my amps on ebay, and they all sold for quite reasonable prices within the first 10 days. Hard to complain about that.....

[sleewell]

yeah but there was a time when you could have sold them just as fast for the same price or higher on the forums and not have paid all those ebay and paypal fees.

[GAS KING]

Plus, other than TGP....what other non-eBay/non-CL for sale sites are there?

I'm assuming a 6505 wouldn't sell on TGP.
HC was shitty too. Used to be a great place to snag cheap gear, and sell stuff quickly.

Ya I may have had better luck moving it on one of the forums or ebay but I hate shipping heads any more. I was lucky getting the heads I sold to their perspective buyers in one peice without any shipping issues.

[GAS KING]

That's the biggest reason why I don't GAS for those sorts of things.....I just don't want to deal with shipping anymore.

This. I have some stuff I want to sell but its all going to be pretty cheap and I just can't be bothered dicking with CL tire-kickers are already cheaply priced gear. So, obviously it continuing to sit in the basement is a much better move....
