Never understood the point of a starting bid, why not just start it at 0$ and let people bid what they want?
You're only going to get what people are willing to pay for it.

Maybe because he wants what he wants as a minimum.

Is it the one used by faz?

You do realise the effort behind a modded cube right? And this is a Florian cube we're talking about.

 

[Florian]

I can assure you that the cube will be worth that price, I'd put in the starting bit of 99.99 because it is the price of a Lubix Elite and a 5x5 modded by me is the Lubix Elite of the 5x5s whilst most likely taking a bit more time to mod.

I've sold cubes recently with the price being 100$+ and none of them were not completely satisfied.

The thing about the price is that even this starting bit makes the wage go down below the US minimum wage, which is way below the wage I am getting at my part time job. Going down more would just be ridiculous.

 

[JianhanC]

Do you consider the amount of time spent on modding? profit / time (hours) could be a new perspective.

 

[Florian]

I do not consider spending less time on each cube in order to reduce the price. I mod them to perfection (well close to), thats when I stop.

 

[JianhanC]

Nono, you misunderstand me. I meant to say to calculate it based on profit per hour. For example, I made a 5x5 and got ~USD30 profit for it, and I spent about 13 hours on it. So I essentially earned 30/13 = 2.3 dollars per hour.

Yes, lets say I sell a cube for 110$.
I make ~85$ profit.
Including every thing (buying, modding, lubing, stickering, testing, packagin, shipping) I take maybe 11 hours, sometimes an hour more sometimes an hour less.
Which would be 7.72$/hour, which is below the US minium wage.

 

[Florian]

ok, I got 8 black and 2 white 5x5s and 8 black and 2 white 4x4s
I'll get to them when I get the time

yay. Do you know about how much are the 4x4s going to cost?

 

[Florian]

I sold 2 5x5 and a 4x4 yet for prices that I'm ok with, so I need to mod them first until I can go for another one. I'll message you then
