Oh - Maybe This is How They Do It
Well . . . if you read our last post, you know we were wondering how one could make money selling things at a 60% discount. We just got a clue - maybe you just mark up everything a ridiculous amount, then it's easy ! My sister just sent me a link, showing a tin Ocean Liner that we sell for $18 - on a website that has it priced at $66 (!) If you search out items online there will always be a little price variation - I would expect to see this particular item going from a low of $15 to maybe a high of $20. Then I thought - of course it's possible that they simply made a mistake . . . so I checked out their other tin toy prices - all insanely inflated. Buyer beware - the website I refer to is www.unpluggedbyronbay.com/. They sell clothes and other things primarily - maybe they thought their customers would not realize what fair prices for tin toys are . . ? ? Crazy ! Below - the boat. Joie - $18.00 Unplugged Byron Bay - $66.

The price was wrong is $26
