nah, Some people aint happy unless they get shit for free. My Xonar D2X was brand new, used only once for about 10mins. didnt stop people callin me up and offering me £20-25 for it. and like i told all of them. Its still selling for £100 in a lot of places. I want £70 for it because theres not even a scratch on it, and it comes with all original cables and accessories, hence i stated it was being sold as new.

Most average people just think a soundcards a soundcard. but there are some soundcards that just aint any average soundcard but they dont seem to understand and differentiate whats garbage and whats premium.

and thats what i think the major problem is. and what suprised me was not one person with a bit of tech savvy called me up to ask about the soundcard. the ad was placed on gumtree for 2-3weeks and i put the ad up more then once to see if it will net me more attention.

I dont mind people asking me if i could lower the price. theres nothing wrong with that. but people think its good practise to call people up and offer them stupidly low offers even when i have put 'obo' or 'ono' in my ad.

and it annoys the fuck out of me when they think they can still negotiate a price when i have already stated what the cards worth more then 4 times as much as what their offering, and ive already discounted it due to being second hand. but like it or not, its still a brand new card. and not a peice of junk like Genius which you can pick up for £5 at carboot sales.
