Creed selling advice.

[Sanchez]

Now i have a gold limited edition Vangaurd Creed V2 that im trying to sell.

Said marker: http://www.p8ntballer-forums.com/vb/showthread.php?148693-FS-FT-Limited-Edition-Gold-Vangaurd-Creed-V2-%A3350-ONO

Now i bought it just over a month ago for £400, with about 1500 shots on it, the marker was, and still is mint condition, all i have added is about another 2500 shots to it.

I put it back up for sale at same price i bought it for, as there seemed to be abit of interest around it when i bought it.

I however have had pretty much zero genuine interest in the gun, so have just dropped the price to £350, as i have just bought another marker.

The problem i have is that all Creeds recently have sold or are being advertised at between £260 and £320, so am i really looking at about a £100 loss on a limited edition marker after just 2 uses? (walkon and a training day)

Why do the Creeds depreciate in value so much?

I don't think it the fact it's a creed. The 2nd hand market is not very good at the min hasn't been for a while

But saying that creeds aren't a huge name in the uk there much bigger in the US. There getting bigger but not as big as planet and dye and I think the price of a 2nd hand or used creed reflects this

Ok mate, thanks for that, i suppose it makes sense!

But what gets me the most, is that there was some interest when it was priced at £400 by previous owner about a month ago, but no, there is no interest, not even offers.

So anyway dropped the price £50, is that more reasonable?
Or is it a case of what im willing to let it go for or what someone is willing to pay?

May just keep it if it dosent sell for around £350, as its a good gun!

By the way mate, yours seems to be the name that keeps popping up when Creeds are mentioned.
Would you be able to 'tech' (if thats the correct term?) the gun for me if you do that sort of thing, for piece of mind before it sells.
If so, could you pm me with details please buddy.

A few issues with the V1 creeds haven't help Vanguard in the UK that's what I think hasn't helped

Its also a cheap Ego, so it will suffer cheap Ego second hand prices. And how many were ever sold at retail ?
