Expensive...yes! Some of their items are new, I've been told and also as another poster said, you can "dicker" with them to lower their prices. We've not purchased any with them though.

As to the "expensive" topic....the stores have to make money on an item as well as pay the previous owner of the used product.

When pricing items as a FSBO item...some folks don't know how that works. If you purchase an item you sell it for 20 0r 25% of what you paid for it. Sounds fair...it isn't but that's what I was told by an auctioneer once. We had a room full of top of the line, name-brand items and we'd never have gotten what we felt was a good price for them had we sold them. This is what the auctioneer told me and it's true with most re-sales.
