Full Version: Who can bargain more?
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
As we all already know (I didn't know a month ago) beyblades have been out of production for some years now. The only places where you can get them are either on sites like Ebay and Yahoo! Japan Auction, and perhaps some retail shops that carry antiques.

As we all probably also know, new in box ( NIB ) will mean its just left over warehouse stock that was never sold all those years ago.

So who do you think is in a better bargain position, the buyer or seller?

Here is a few random thoughts

The seller
Cons:
-selling old toys
-selling second hand toys
-selling unpopular toys
-selling toys he wants to get rid of

Pros:
-selling toys hard to find

The buyer
Con:
-buying toys hard to find

Pros
-buying old toys
-buying second hand toys
-buying toys that are unpopular
-knows the seller wants to get rid of them

You might realise that the sellers cons are the buyers pros and vice-versa.

I believe he/she/it/all of above is trying to ask what this topic is about.

Um.. basically I just wondering who you guys think can bargain more?

So for example since these toys are really old you might expect to be paying really cheap for them right? But from what I've been reading toywiz seems to think otherwise. They are more like um 'we've got these super rare toys that no one else has so we can charge heaps for them' therefore in this case it would appear that the seller can bargain more.

In another example you can buy cheap Driger MS and Draciel MS for 99c off ebay so it would appear that the buyer is in control.

So overall whats your general opinion?
Seller. If the buyer doesn't agree, there's going to be someone, somewhere who will agree. Within limits. At least that's what I believe.

Agreed. Toywiz sold out their items somehow.
Or maybe they might just be pretending that they sold out to attract customers. "While stocks last" is an amazing way to boost sales.

Doubtful, I've seen many items go out of stock and never return.

anyways... the buyer... cuz we kno that they're trying to sell the things that they don't want we can sometimes choose the "deals" that we need
