Do you guys sell these GPUs at these high mark ups in person or online? I don’t think I would be able to sell them in person at a high mark up. Online it’s different. But when you are doing the transaction in person I couldn’t look the other person in the eye while charging him 50-100% mark up.
I would feel ashamed for taking advantage. And if I was a buyer paying a high mark up I also wouldn’t have a pleasant look on my face knowing that I am paying a huge premium to this individual who was lucky enough to find some in stock.
Online. I don't have the time to go meet people face to face in a safe place to do a transaction. I also have to collect and remit sales tax in my state and it's to much of a hassle as no buyer wants to pay sales tax face to face.
There is nothing to be ashamed of and no one is getting taken advantage of. I offer a high level of customer service and price my products at the market rate. The buyer's I have appreciate the fact they know they will get what they ordered, in a timely manner, and shipped safely.
The time and effort put into acquiring a hard to find, highly sought after item is appreciated and worth paying extra for to my buyers. No one has to buy from me as I am selling a luxury item.
The Walmart by me has no other grocery store for 2-3 miles and charges 50% more for milk and other food staples than the one close to Publix. I think that is worse but I can still drive a bit to save some money or pay the extra for saving the time of buying close.
I can price my items and the buyers can decide if they want to purchase. If I didn't grab items when I can someone else will and that seller may not give the same high level of customer service that I do.
