I'm going to post something just so I can give them shit. :)

Also, I'm going to demand a cut of the sale since they are using my ad that I am paying for.


You gotta admit though, that price is good. LOL

It comes bundled with almost any midi hardware these days, basically a neutered version of ableton. If you really want it, there's a ton of people that sell their licenses on the kvr forums for $5. That is a full legally transferable license.

I saw this. FWIW it's a separate button—to the right of an item for sale there's the normal "add to cart," then below there's a separate little ad for "save money by buying both," then an "add both to cart" button.

It's super lame, yes, but it's not like they make that the only option. Amazon does this shit all the time... "people also bought ________, save by buying both." Businesses gonna business.

I noticed the same issue when vetting my latest buyer. Pretty annoying to not be able to fully assess someone's recent transactions.

Just listed my HOG on there today and saw a suggested bungle of my HOG and a $9.99 Ableton bundle.

I'm not sure what I make if it. I wonder if it might catch someone's attention and they don't buy the bundle but check out my listing because of the bundle and just buy my item.

One of their tech support people removed the admin generated bundle in response to my report of not being able to create my own bundles because of theirs. Provided the bundling bug is system-wide, this is likely the solution for anyone else who would prefer not to have Reverb using your listings to sell their merchandise.

That's annoying as fuck. The percentage they take for hosting and processing isn't enough that they need to use listings to advertise? Fuckkkkk youuuuu.

So when are they going to go belly-up? End of the year?

I've noticed the buyers guide suggested used price will fluctuate as well. Anyone else?

aren't those calculated from the last so and so many sales? so fluctuate they should unless prices are really consistent for an item

That's because people are fucking stupid dick heads and keep flooding the market at the same time.

It's ok to undercut other sellers to a point but when you do it by hundreds of dollars you are fucking yourself and the market for the foreseeable future.

i haven't really been feeling reverb for awhile, not for any particular reason, never had anything but a good experience, just a vibe i guess.

since everybody seemed to jump ship to verb, eBay has been much better, less dickheads and faster selling for more dough :idk:

With the recent decrease in Ebay fees for certain music gear, that may change soon enough.

Ebay's fees went down?? I need to look into that. I've stopped selling there because it was 10 fucking percent. That shit can go to hell and die!
