Well I mean... I wouldn't sell any of mine for $50.

But to be fair I also wouldn't sell them for $200 each so really what's $32 for one! Lol

You ass hole! You are driving the value of these up on... yourself??? Not really because no one else would pay those insane prices. I actually hope others see them sell for that and think about listing theirs. Lots of ways to skin a cat! Haha

Bro... that one still has the original hooker juice. Not sure where you are on yours, but I cleaned PGA Pros, mine are clean, if yours are at this point then there are not many with the original 30 plus year old Hooker Juice Still intact! Gotta be worth more! Lmao

Maybe other racks out there... but not that I know of.

One of the things I hate about eBay. They don’t care if the listings are accurate. Just pay their fee and all is good.

i actually sent him a message a while ago, this was his response:

chipsdealer
Thank you , it is listed “Pre Paulson “ which is a.k.a blue chip company.​
Your listing picture shows a Blue Chip Company chip. Do you have actual Paulson’s to sell or is the listing in error? Thanks.​

That was news to me. Must have missed that issue of Poker Chip Daily.
 
I’ll just post this rant here. It’s a waste of space, but I feel like I need to rant.
Seller lists chip for $16.99. It’s well worn and isn’t even worth $10, based on eBay sales over the past 6 months.
Doesn’t sell - re-lists for 16.99
Doesn’t sell - relists for $18.99 - HOW DOES THAT MAKE ANY SENSE??

Doesn’t sell three times at $18.99, so finally seller re-lists it for $18.99 with the make an offer option.
I offer $12 and feel stupid for offering too much.
Seller counteroffers for $16.
I counteroffer for $12.25 and feel even dumber.
Seller declined.
When it gets down to 15 min left in the auction, I countered with $12.50 and felt even dumber.
Seller declined.
Seller relists it at $18.99.

Oh no, you should see the guys Ben deals with on eBay for trump chips...
One guys sells a chip for $15 and some change.... Ben purchases the chip
Several days relists another of the same chip for $30+ lmao

There's another seller that's infamous for what you're talking about he sells single $5s mostly, his prices are already borderline asinine, like $25 + ship for a single (some are worth that, most not really)
He doesn't sell anything, just relists over and over, then after awhile of no purchases he'll bump it up to like $37.99

Ps - don't ever feel stupid about sending low ball offers, I do it because Ben won't and you'd be surprised how many people accept the offer or will meet you half way.... lol
Sometimes when people list stuff that high they're actually the stupid ones imo

I’m learning that. This guy has listed this rocks glass for $25 a few times. Finally I offered him $7. He countered at $15, so I offered $8. He countered at $13, so I offered $9, and he accepted.
And I still feel like I payed about twice as much as it’s worth, ha!
I guess as long as sellers have unlimited time, and if re-listing doesn’t cost them anything, then they have nothing to lose by asking for stupid prices.

Its just a game for most of them. Jack the price and maybe, every now and then, you'll catch the moron cruising by that sees the price and says "wow that seems expensive, must mean its really special!" and buys it. Or the drunk surfer....
 
@FordPickup92 BREEZY!

I often get the impression that eBay sellers think the "Make an Offer" option is for the purpose of making an offer higher than the opening bid ... which is the exact opposite of my opinion -- "$20 or best offer" to most rational people means "$20 or whatever I can get, up to $20"

Especially the guys that have it set to auto decline offers below asking
