What is my dm6 worth?

[J@mes]

no not really, the two DM6's will go quicker, and the one at £300 may take longer.

you say your DM5 is worth £160.... so by that, a DM6 should be worth £290 at least, due the UL frame (which costs £150 new) thats not factoring in the extra weight that has been milled off for a lighter marker, the newer style feedneck clamp... plus when people put upped bits on like boards, trigger, flow plugs.. i could go on.

if i got a ul frame mine would still only sell for £190
i can see what your saying , i will watch the dm6 inquestion , see how that goes.

and to me £240 is a good price which if i got rid of mine first would be happy to pay

FAIL

thats the thing - you would be happy paying £240 - so would most people - but its worth more than that and so should be put for what people will pay for it.

its simple economics. elasticity of demand.

 

[Stokecity_m]

maybe it is worth more - but seeing as there is one forsale for less on the forums - means someone looking for a dm6 would take that one first.

 

[J@mes]

yes but you see, he's used your advice as a guide.. and as there hasn't been many up for sale that haven't been sponsor/team/update driven.. people think that is the going rate, when it just isnt

this is why old sale threads need to be deleted

i'd take it - but i'm skint

you say no trades but i thought you wanted an ego?

Yea but I already have one lined up to buy with the money from selling this.

then thats the buyers loss. if you want to comepete with that then fine - your loss.

if you hold out that marker will go and yours will be left - someone will buy it.

give up - your ruining the market.

 

[Stokecity_m]

it doesn't matter if they are a sponsered team selling them or not.

people will always try and pay as little as posible.

a product is only worth what someone will pay for it.

and i bet it wont be avialable for ever , so you have to shift your marker soon.

another reason the second hand market is low.

yes and as i stated earlier its simple economics - elasticity of demand - try reading about it someday.

There is always someone willing to pay more than another person - it may not be by much, but they will.

its easier to explain with a graph but the fact is people will pay more for it therefore it is worth more.

it has been a year since i did economics but the principle is there its all about elasticity of demand.

but basically your wrong.

QUIT and let this thread die
