I think you needing to sell something is higher up the food chain than someone needing to buy something. Even though you can demand a high price for something, don't expect it and also don't expect to have it sold if you need to leave the country in a couple weeks.
Those that sell lower will get rid of their stuff quicker. It's common sense. |

We?
Who is we? Are you trying to make your argument stronger than it really is by assuming others agree? I have traded other things with people and sold for less to people.
Times are tough with the economy as the way it is, I would prefer to buy low and sell low. Why work with bigger numbers and risk not getting it when you try to sell that 1,500 dollar laptop you bought in the US for 1 million won?
There will always be someone willing to sell theirs for like 600,000 won or 700,000 and undercut you. I have been able to get 3 computers this way, as well as 4 guitars (2 being over 500,000 won). I also was able to sell them EXACTLY at the price I paid. Two bought more stuff from me, so I was able to clear out a lot of stuff in just under 2 weeks.
If there is an idiot out there who will pay more, good luck, I won't be the one  |

So, paying 200,000 won more for something is small stuff, but selling it for 200,000 less isn't?
If you had a girlfriend, you would see it is the other way around, LOL. You need that money my friend. |

I suggest OP, to put your item on auction or naver to sell as well. Im sure there would be many Koreans who would happily pay the asking price.
This place is known to have a FEW members who want something for basically nothing.
Dont waste your breath on a lowballer! |
