I have a Pod Pro in at 150.00 and a Flextone III with a shortboard and Line 6 cover at 300.00. Both in great condition. Not even one bite. For months now.  I don't even get contacted by scammers. I'll end up going down to 250.00 which is what I paid for the shortboard alone and I still won't get any takers. Nobody wants this stuff. It has nil resale value.

The numbers you mention are a far cry from nil. If you reduce further they'll sell. Remember - you're comparing to leaving them in a closet except for the occasional farting around. So, if you're serious that you find them otherwise worthless - then what's stopping you from dropping your price?  How about a no-reserve listing on ebay? Let the market decide what they're worth.

Ok, since you asked. Because I'll feel ripped off. I'll feel like an idiot for buying it in the first place. It goes from being gear I own to being to gear I took a huge loss on. It illuminates in sharp relief the mistake I made choosing Line 6. I'm proof there's a sucker born every minute. I'll eventually find another one.

 

Thanks for the swell advice though. No wonder you're an expert.

I think you're over-thinking and dwelling on this too much on this, dude. Just sell it, if you're not using it.

ok... we get it.. you don't like your line6 gear.... that's wholly permitted...

by why you gotta be a complete *Doooooshbag to a guy that's simply trying to find you a way out....

i've known silver for a number of years and really he was only trying to be sincerely helpful.

you have your reasons for not pursuing the avenue he presented fair enough...

but was it really such an offense that he offered the thought?

in any case... everyone with or without a tag under their name on some gear forum or another....

is an expert on something....

he's here and considered an "expert" because of his passion for gear and his willingness to help others...

i'm not sure why you find fault in that...

Seriously?? I post something perhaps a little sarcastic in response to something I thought perhaps a little sarcastic, and you call me a "complete *Doooooshbag"!  Holy double standard Batman! I assure you that "doooooshbaggery," was not at all complete, and nowhere near what I'm capable of.

If you want to be intellectually dishonest and say he was only trying to help, fine. But, why don't I deserve the same benefit of the doubt? Maybe you missed the part where he said I must value my farts? Now that I read it again, hey! It does sound helpful! (there's that sarcasm again) I'm sure all of the experts are fine people and not at all influenced by the free gear or inflated sense of importance. They would never think of attacking someone with a differing opinion. (darn! there it is again)

I eagerly await the next insult.

We've already had this agrument. In my opinion, you lost.

Nice going! You'll get that expert status yet! It takes a keen sense of the hypocrital and you my boy, have it in spades! Clear off a shelf for your new gear. I'll bake a cake!

i honestly never stated an opinion on the subject matter at hand....

either agreeing or disagreeing with your opinion....

i honestly have no opinion to offer... word of mouth says the axe stuff is great... ok...

i'm happy with the gear i use... one day i'll want something different and then i'll look elsewhere...

maybe the fart comment was an attempt to lighten the mood... or a straight up joke...

in either case i wouldn't regard it as a personal attack... just a failed attempt at humor...

silver owns that and he can certainly defend his own comments.

your comment was clearly more than a little sarcastic... an approach i utilize frequently, and can fully appreciate.

noone wants to see it.. but i'm sure that we could go neck and neck with the doooshbaggery as i can bring it too....

i don't have any desire to go there honestly... i thought perhaps you didn't realize how poorly your comments came across and that pointing it out would bring the whole thing back to adult land... clearly my dooshbag comment ran contrary to this goal and i apologize for the offence.

he was trying to help with the post fart comment...  that's pretty obvious... why would he follow up the fart thing at all if he just wanted to hit and run...?

i do like participating in the beta programs when offered.... being an expert is not a guarantee of anything...

but contributing in that manner allows me to get attention for the issues i might have with the gear...

in that respect you'd probably be a welcome addition, as you seem to have many issues with the gear (NO SARCASM)

i can tell you that the betas sometimes get a rough start... but as it goes they listen... and things happen... often good things...

but clearly not every request is feasible for any number of reasons.

no insults for you... but i'd be happy to help bring attention to your issues with the gear if you'd care to list them...

i mean seriously... we'd all be crank starting our cars if someone didn't offer a better idea...
