Not sure on your premise on pricing on Kijiji.

I price fairly (usually just under lowest price currently on Kijiji). I get the odd email lowballing, but 75%+ the first email I get is “can I pick it up tonight”

My stuff usually sells in a day. Often for list. Biggest discount I can recall is 10% and it was a teenaager getting into an outdoor hobby and I recall being like that kid.

Maybe your pricing strategy is self-fulfilling in targeting bad buyers? I mean, most “normal” buyers would never contact you as your pricing is so far out of an acceptable range. You price your item so unrealistically, so you are unwittingly only targeting idiots when you sell your stuff.

I'm not desperate to sell nor would i want the aggravation of dealing with kijiji folk for a few hundred bucks. So if some one wants this stuff, they will make an offer. If no one does, it's fine staying sitting in my living room haha

that being said I am going to slightly lower the price. I appreciate the input.
