I know it's silly of me to feel this way-- But occasionally, I'll check who bought one of my items, and notice that the same person is now selling it for slightly more than the price they bought it-- You know, sort of exactally like what I'm doing. And as unreasonable as it is, it sort of makes me angry! xd I suppose I'm just offended that somebody's making money off of me, not the other way around. Hehe. Or perhaps it's just the fact that they're competition for people's gold? I don't know, but I thought I'd share this funny sentiment with you all.

So, do you ever get this feeling, even just a little bit?

No, I just think I should have sold it a little higher.

Nope. If I'd wanted to make more profit on it, I would have priced it higher. Yes, it might have taken longer to sell, but that's the balance you have to strike.

In fact, sometimes I not only watch what they're doing, but can figure out their strategy from how they've positioned the item smile . It's kind of funny - and yes, I could have done that, but I have my reasons why I chose a different strategy.

He placed his head to her heart...

I don't really get a funny feeling...Infact when I sell my items I usually expect them to sell it for more. ^^'

...and whispered 'This is my new favorite song.'

I never pay any attention. I don't want to know.

I don't get that feeling, as long as I sold my item for market value at the time then I feel like I got out of it what I could. If the next guy makes more on it, congrats to him

I just shrug it off and next time make a mental note to sell for more.

If I see somebody selling something they bought from me, I compare the price they bought if from me, then move on.

I do the same as Dj Mix- except I do take some time to wonder how long this person takes to gain the same amount in profit as I do at such small margins....
