If you feel that a community protecting those that don't know any better from overpaying is crapping, that's fine. I see it as being helpful.

Overpaying? In what world does thread crapping prevent someone from over paying? If someone within the community wants to buy something wouldn’t that determine the market. The problem is that only the tight knit community is only allowed to make money. Welcome change!

“Community” is about building relationships. A quick glance at your posts for over the last year shows 99% of them just trying to sell oversized inlay Detroit fracs.

You aren’t community. You’re here to sell. Guess what? That’s fine. But become a vendor then. Don’t try to act like you want to be part of the “community”.

If you come in trying to sell a bunch of Paulsons at $6 per chip but the community feels the true value is $2, the community should have the right to warn other users, as much as you are allowed to list that chip for 3x more than what the community values them at.

“Thread crapping” is the PCF version of Yelp.

and perhaps I should make historical information of sales public to give the market a good basis. Which Paulson did I post for $6 that is actually worth $2, please advise

this makes you sound ignorant, cocky, and looking for a keyboard confrontation.

If he's the market, who's the walrus?
@Machine are you the eggman?

Classified Ads is apart of this community. You don’t own or make the rules in this community but I’ll consider your advice lmaoo

The math is probably off but I would guess he is talking about a rack of oversized inlay fracs worth $25 being sold for $600.

@biggantt - Serious question. Are you getting the responses here that you expected?

Never said that you did that. Was just using that as an example of a recent seller on here.

 

[improviseallday]

I am the market

Not really other than just confirmation of what I thought about these oldies

I'm not totally sure it is just a generational issue you are having here.

I’m saying my price goes higher for those who talk shit. Prices stay the same if not lower for those who show respect

Only a “old-timer” would know what “over-market” is. As far as I’m concerned as it relates to $0.25 fracs I am the market.

who said I wanted to change anything? I’m just here to help the community find chips they couldn’t otherwise

Those sold for $750 actually lolll. So tell me about the market again? Lollll

I would say that posts like these are an indicator of why you are getting the "feelings" that you are. You are literally in here taunting folks, then complaining that you are not being welcomed with open arms. The vast majority of community members are here to talk about chips, oogle chips, meet other chips collectors, talk poker, and most of us end up making relationships first, and maybe also selling a few chips, maybe sometimes at a profit, but quite often not at a profit at all. There are some people who are here primarily to make a profit, but most of them are vendors. And the successful ones aren't making waves like this. They may be profiting, but they are also perceived as being fair in their pricing.

You can't come in here clearly attempting to make a profit selling chips, taunting respected members who have been here for years, and then turn around and say you don't feel welcome because others think you are only interested in making money. It's one or the other. You either want to be a part of the community, or you want to be a business person. You can't be offended that people aren't welcoming when the perception is that you have no real interest in being a community member. The perception is that you are just here to make money.

Do you have any mustard roulettes available for sale by any chance?

I’m just here to help the community

Answer this question. Why does a select group of people here think they can educate the rest of the community on what “market” is for certain chips. Markets are always changing. Educating the community without historical sales etc is not education that is strictly their opinion. Why is it so hard to understand the difference??

But buying and selling is apart of the community as well. So why is it a problem when I do it? If there is a buyer great. If not, great. I will let the market dictate that based on activity. Why is that a problem?

Consider us a focus group

You have great chips that people want to buy.
You can set whatever price you want to sell your chips.
But just because you have the goods doesn't mean we all have to agree with your pricing structure.
These chips are only worth the price people are willing to spend on them.
You can try to force a high market all you want, but tha
