Just thinking

November 18th, 2006 at 03:42 am

I was thinking about selling my $149 boots on ebay vs returning them to the store and set a reserve price of $200. Is this ethical? maybe I will just send them back, either way I am getting rid of them. $149 on apir of boots I must be crazy

    Buy something low and sell it at a higher price? I believe they call that capitalism!WinkSmile

    A bird in the hand...

    If there is no return fee, I would just return them. If you sell them on e-bay you have to deal with:

    Taking the time to ship the package out
    The possibility the winner is a shyster and you could end up stuck out
    Not selling them, but still being responsible for the listing fees

    I buy and sell on ebay, mostly buy. The selling part can be more of a hassle than it's worth. Not trying to scare you off ebay, but just having had a bad experience myself, I say return the boots to the store.

    If you do sell them, I wouldn't say that's unethical. I would check completed auctions on ebay to get an accurate selling price before you decide to sell.
