I was really interested in how this poll was going to turn out.
I would like the secondary market better if I could stop myself from paying to much just because I want something NOW!

One thing I noticed is the people who hate it never get good deals because they spend to much time mulling it over and if you see a good deal you have to be fast and decisive. I know I priced something right like when I sold my YKCG a while ago
because I got 3 "Ill take it"'s in the first 5 minutes. The guy who got it took about 35 seconds to decide.


I think I am getting pretty good at this secondary market thing. When I sell something I take several good recent photos and write a little mini review on the knife or anything you want to sell.

When you are looking at a knife say on BF you have to consider all the info not just the knife. Is the seller a well known and reliable guy is a biggie.
How long has the knife been for sale. 7 or 8 bumps means all the regulars looked and did not buy it so you have to ask yourself why.

Sometimes you can find a good knife that has not sold because of a bad advert and offer the seller a deal. I got my SH-E user for a decent price because it had not sold because of the awful photo.

Users or ads without photos can also be good deals. So can knives that are under appreciated like recurves or weird looking ones like the Sus Scrofa and the Scotch Dispenser.
