Those are horrible prices, I can get a set of .3-3 for much much much less than I could through this.
Just randomly checking http://www.mgear.com here's what you get as far as "retail prices"
.3 44.63
.4 44.63
.5 44.63
.75 44.63
1 46.88
2 46.88
3 51.38
4 58.88
5 73.88
6 82.13
and these cams aren't even on sale, if you want to move these cams your going to have to lower your prices alot. Even an unopened item loses value the second it transfers from the retailer's hands into the consumer's hands (ie how a car instantly drops several thousand dollars in value the second you drive it off the lot) so your going to have to follow accordingly, otherwise people are just going to go buy new.

I still wanna know where you got these cams before I'll think about buying some. (I need a bit more than legally).

Prices : average. Customer service : horrible. Watching you get flamed mercilessly over the next few days : priceless.....
Dude - you are the one wanting to sell - get the attitude carrot out of your a$$, or you'll just blow potential buyers off.
Whatever.

As far as attitude goes, it comes from the fact that, more often than not, when anybody posts gear for sale here, someone then posts how they are asking way too much and that it will never sell.
In the case of musicman, he stated that my prices were "horrible" and that he could buy them for "much much much" less. In reality, he found them for $3-6 per cam less. That hardly makes my prices "horrible" and (at least to me) does not constitute the use of the word "much" three times in front of the word "less".
So, yes, I coped an attitude to his statement. He could have simply posted that perhaps I was unaware that they were on sale at Mgear and that they could be purchased for less there than I was asking. Instead, he takes a shot like I am some sort of con artist out to scam the rc.com public. That's the trouble with Internet anonymity - had he taken the time to think, perhaps he would have written something different. Would he have said the same thing he wrote to my face? Probably not. Instead, he just fired without thinking - much like many have.
