A big mistake some make is to post a super low price. This can make people believe that what is being offered is junk and not worth any amount of money.

Or they're just being honest

Trust me. I am no fan of the haggle. I was simply explaining how a lot of people think.

What's it matter? Items are worth what someone is willing to pay for them.

It doesn't matter. It just tickles me that some people think other trappers are so dumb. But then I look at some of the posters on here and realize that maybe there's something to selling things for more than new cost.
