I flat out refuse to make a profit from the classefieds here. If I got a deal, you'll get a deal.
But on Gumtree/eBay/facebook I call it fair game. For instance I just sold my Laney IRT Studio for £255 on Gumtree, I paid £245 4 months ago for it on eBay.
I'm aware there are dealers out there, but when that Feline Iceman went on ebay for about £200 and was then subsequently flipped on here for twice that or so because we know the value of the brand I was right pissed off I was.

My Dark terror and IRT were the same RRP but I got £20 more for it when I sold it than I paid for the laney.
I now sold the Laney for a tenner more than I paid. So I'm around £30 in the green on them both

I got an ENGL 2x12 with V30's for £150 off here. Thats Crazy pricing. So if/when I sell, it'll go for the same figure on here.

Ah, but what happens if somebody on here takes advantage of your generous deal and then decides to flip it themselves for a profit? Could easily happen.
I uplift all prices by 80% for him.

On here, sell at a bargain price, make profit from fleabay (or bumtree/TGP etc)
