You as a seller, cant think or say like that.
Who said doing business its easy anyway...... whistling.gif

nobody say business is easy. and i'm saying if every customer also hope for robin hood seller like urself, then nobody will be willing to spend time sourcing for it. what most sellers are experiencing nowadays is people lowballing already very low price (doesnt happen to me much coz my target market is quite different). of coz as customers, we want the best price available. but as a buyer, sometimes have to be fair to the sellers also.

mebbe some sellers want margin up to 30~50%  sweat.gif desway not ez lor

unfortunately, i can tell u honestly. profit margin for my stuff is only 2-5%. sometimes rugi if the retail price turn out to be cheaper than mine. if im lucky, 8-10%. but most of the time is way below that.
margin of more than 20% only happens in dreamland tongue.gif

erm, i tot sir alby also do COD. I know he travelled 25km away from his COD locations to meet some fler... for CS items!!  drool.gif 
not everything is about making money. Sometimes making friends who share the same hobby as u is worth a lot more than the couple hundred bucks you can make in one deal.  wub.gif  biggrin.gif

lego business should never become ur main job. the profit is too little and dont think u can survive with it.
also, u might spend too much time entertaining customers (the good ones and the bad ones)...which, i doubt is something u will enjoy.
