Them for more then you paid for them??? Isn't that the name of the game people?? wheel and deal, getting ahead.. I am just curious.. I always bought things for more and sold them for less.. Seems some people might think this way..

Nothing personal to anyone on here, but I don't owe anyone anything.
I've bought about 4 Corsa Exhausts for about $150-200 and turned around and sold them on here for $400-600 each. I buy and sell things all the time and make money. I don't have the ability to have a job with college and college baseball so this is the next best thing.

I had a guy I knew moving out of state a few years ago. He had a duramax that had expired tags & no insurance. He couldn't sell it to save his life, and couldn't afford to license & insure it, move to CA, then re-license & insure it again. For several weeks he begged me to help him find a buyer. Once his house sold, he got desperate. His price dropped every single day. He called me the day before he had to leave and offered it to me for $13,500. I scooped it up(it booked for over $21K at the time). I kept the thing for one year, loaned it out more than I drove the thing, and sold it for $19,500 after only adding about 1000 miles to the odometer. It only took me a week to sell.
In my opinion, this is the American way. Free enterprise. This is how business works(markup), this is how the stock market works, and this is how real estate works. If you can get something for less than it is actually worth, then sell it for what it is actually worth, then you are just a better businessman than the person who sold it to you.....
