What would you do if you saw a deal on the mfk marketplace.

a fellow mfk'r bought it and put it up on craigslist for more than double that what he bought it for?

just curious on what you would do.

post it up on mfk and let people know or just be quiet and leave it alone.
 
MFK'rs are known to give each other deals, that are unrivaled. Why start drama when it could be avoided? Did you lose money? If not, I would move on, if so, I would PM them.

It's still a free country, isn't it? :D He does what he wants, and you do what you want! ;)
 
I guess its his right to make money technically. But ethically, I think its wrong. The mfk comminuty should help each other out, not rip off each other.
 
ok. cool just wanted to see what other peoples opinions on this matter would be.

it was just upsetting.

but i'll just leave it alone.

He didn't rip off MFK community. He rip off Craigslist community :D I bought a tank recently from a MFK member, nice tank, awesome deal. Change in venue, so I decided to post it for sale on Craiglist. That same member asked me to raise the price. Such a nice guy! :D And the tank was sold by the next day, too! :WHOA:

Play on playa!! I support the hobby however I can! And if that menas gettin a deal and Flippin it.. JUST LIKE A house.. Well :) Guess what :) That's what ima do :)

Why....

I'm 31. I haven't lived with my parents for 16 years. learned that a hustle is a hustle no matter what it is... And if that hustle helps me stay in MY BUDGETS good graces.. Well I do it. I love my kids and I love my hobby... I work for my kids and hustle what I can for my hobby.

I personally will go get a free broken tank fix it for 5.00 and an hour of clean up... And sell it for 50-100.00 depending on size...

I get a free 125... Guess what :) I sell it for no less that 100.00 and usually no less than 125.00.

I hook up my friends with my find or price.. I hook up my close MFK buddies too. I have no buddies on craigslist so... Seeing anything bought here to make a buck there only makes me angry if I tried to get it first to either... Do the same thing... Or get it for my own personal collection.

Not everyone in the hobby is blessed with money.. And those of us that aren't, are blessed with something else... HUSTLE and Skills to make that hustle happen ;)

That's the honesty of it :)
