Parts Trend - What's with the asinine Pricing?

[68l30]

Just think, in ten years these could be the "Good ol' Days" ....Bet I'm right? I was co-owner of a parts company for 20+ years. The customers with the "short arms" drove me nutz. "I've been looking for this ( name any rare GM part) for 10 years" .. I could have priced it at $20 and often did (just because I knew) and they would drop it and walk away. Drove me insane. Game is played from both sides gentleman. I've smashed parts right in front of an A-hole just to make a point. My time, my parts ....they were priced cheap, but I won't give them away!

If I saw a guy buying ferraris online and then asking twice the price immediately after that and getting it,I wouldnt complain to everyone about what a jerk the guy is , Id start buying ferraris.

Alias?

What does it matter what name a person uses when they buy something? Cash money is cash money. Price shouldn't be subject to who the buyer is. My buying name sure isn't the same as my ebay selling name. Why do I have to have to have &quot;stupid&quot; stamped on my forehead when I'm looking to buy. My feedback on my buyer name is even private so sellers can't look to see what I have bought in the past. When I had public feedback I got lots of questions from sellers on why I was bidding on their item and if I was gonna resell it, that, and I'm sure I was jacked up on prices a few times too.

Stupid is as stupid does.....
