Quoted from ticktockman:I mean, where else would you expect to get FREE shipping, especially on freight items?
Customers should not expect this free, regardless of what was done in the past.
Dealers barely make money on these to begin with so maybe stop squeezing them for every last dime...
If they are giving you free shipping they are likely up-charging you on the game.. or they are terrible at math and business.
Quoted from chuckwurt:Hear that ZMeny ?? You’re terrible at math and business. I knew it!!!!
Thats not what I said if you bother to read it.
Any dealer giving free shipping is likely charging more for the game to make up the diff. If not then I have no idea how they make any money.
If they say "free shipping" it makes you feel like you get a deal even if you don't.
I was offered someone's position once but after I saw the numbers there was no way in hell I was doing it.
These guys really do work hard and get underpaid for the amount of shit they have to take... they must have serious love for the hobby.
Quoted from IdahoRealtor:Those dealers currently treating everyone like rich, desperate, moron newbs are not playing the long game. Deep-pocketed old timers are taking names and have a long memory.
It's easy to say that but most people complaining would do the same thing.
When supply and demand was in the dealers favor they tried to make more money... shocking.
Not to mention if playing the "long game" they end up selling cheap to assholes who just turn around and flip the games for a few grand more than they paid which is fucked up.
If you guys stop that from happening I am sure they will be more likely to deal but nothing worse then giving someone the "friend price" so they can turn around and screw you and resell it NIB for way more. Happens over and over.
