If you really think you missed it by tens of thousands, pull it off the market and reprice at a later date. You could contact all the inquiries with a quick explanation that the price was incorrectly posted (transposed numbers, not clearly explained that to transfer the warranty is extra, fat fingered a 4 instead of a 6 or whatever) and include the new price. Worst thing that could happen is a bunch of people cross your rig off their list forever. If it kills all the deals, that is the risk you take.jplante4 wrote:
Funny, my advise would be to pull it off the market and put it back on next month at a higher price.
I considered that.
Please understand I have accepted no offers.
I am well aware of how quickly offers evaporate, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. etc.. Also well aware of how easily it is to say one thing over the internet, scams, etc. etc.
Just curious what you all would do. Please no bashing. Just looking for input on what you would consider fair/ethical approach to handling my apparent under pricing (and under estimating demand) and the subsequent flood of folks wanting to view and make an above asking price offer.
There is no correct answer, but I don't see it as immoral if you truly made a pricing mistake, became aware of that error and decided to not sell. It happens all the time. Watch an episode of the entirely fake Pawn Stars. You often see sellers re-evaluate their asking price after an expert says an item is worth much more than they thought. Professionals with expert knowledge are even required to inform sellers of a mistaken price, hence an expert art appraiser can't buy your garage sale Van Gogh for $20.00. I don't think you will suffer eternal damnation for repricing if that is what you ultimately decide.
DISCLAIMER: I have no insight into the Pearly Gates admission policy, this is just my opinion.
