Lots of things pop up that are better than the deal of the day but never get listed as such. I have a feeling lots of folks are just sitting on the forum snagging up the deals.
Same with ebay and any sales template. People in my area hit Goodwill then resell at Smileys or Ebay. Ive talked to 2 because I saw them buying up clothing they probably wouldn't wear. Some look for deals at yard sales and ebay it. I might do that if I were unable to work or retired with little income. Did you miss the 22LR flippers not long ago? A few go to auctions and flip it here as well as other forums. Its the cycle of life. If I picked up a Near Mint Colt Python for $800 I'd sure try to flip it. Only sux if it isnt you doing it.
