Also ask for more than its worth...you might get more out of it than you think.

Thats not being mean. When you sell something you want to get as much as you can for it. And just because you ask for more doesnt mean you will get it. The trick is to ask for more than its worth so that the guy will say your price is too high and offer to pay something thats still more than its worth. Its not mean. Something is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it. The more you ask the more you will probably get, but dont ask for too much because then no one will even offer you a price.

as long as you are not selling something to someone who may be unssuspecting at an overly high price. Just a character thing.

If you dont know enough about what your buying to know that what your paying is way too much than its your own fault for paying more than what you should have.

so you agree that you should take advantage of anyone who is uneducated. That might say a lot about you.

No. Dude thats not taking advantage of them. Taking advantage would be selling something that doesnt work highly over priced or whatever. You're an idiot if you dont want to get more money out of selling something. You ask for more money, so that the person will offer you more. Its not taking advantage. You must not be very experienced is selling things.

No, money is just not that important to me. I would never sell something for more than I would pay for it. Thats only fair.

Well if you ever open a store let me know. Your prices would have to be really good.. Though you would probably go bankrupt in the first year.
