Members dpizappi Posted August 31, 2012 Members Share Posted August 31, 2012 http://www.thegearpage.net/board/showthread.php?t=1121431 This is a little old but I just found it on the pedal emporium. Dude was selling a Walrus Audio Voyager pedal, supposedly new in box. Three days later no one has bit so he responds by raising the price to $185. Walrus sells this pedal direct for $189. When someone asks why he raised it he says he had it priced too low. And then someone actually buys the thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members macadood Posted August 31, 2012 Members Share Posted August 31, 2012 raising prices is in fact a real sales strategy see nothing wrong with that, considering it worked. also, for some reason the walrus voyager and mayflower go for insane prices even used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Flogger59 Posted August 31, 2012 Members Share Posted August 31, 2012 raising prices is in fact a real sales strategy see nothing wrong with that, considering it worked. also, for some reason the walrus voyager and mayflower go for insane prices even used The best example I ever saw was in the mid 80's.The store where i worked was a Hamer dealer who bought them directly from Joel. We had run through most of a batch, so the remainders went on sale for $399 (pink Prototypes and the like). Sold a few more, and now we were really down to the dregs. The boss came in one day and said to raise the prices on the leftovers to $499. I thought that he was nuts. Sold them all inside a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Hiwatter Posted August 31, 2012 Members Share Posted August 31, 2012 Same thing happened to me right here on HCFX... Bought a Micro Pog for and paid for it right away with paypal. 2 days later the seller sent me a refund because he found someone else to sell it to for more. Tried to lie about it, etc. Funny, cause it wasn't that long ago I was standing up for him when he was getting jerked around by This1smyne.
