My GAS isn't that bad!

JUST bought a guitar on Reverb and it popped up a message "Ready to try something new? Sell this item to fund new gear purchases."

How bad does it think I am

Apparently the best time to make a sale, is after a sale.  The theory is that the customer is already in a buying mood.

That's not bad, when you buy new gear before selling your old stuff, that's bad.

That explains a lot of sales strategies recently. Seeing a lot of unexpected ‘extras’ appearing as purchase options in the checkout process lately

The top tier is selling the new gear before you’ve received it, because you’ve found something else.

I see you that and raise you , not buying it in the first place because you have already found something else just before you complete checkout.

Is it GAS if you don't buy it though?

Jooky used to list guitars for sale which hadn’t even arrived yet cause he’d seen something else

I've been beta testing it for a while , I'm short selling loads of PRS silver skys at the moment and hoping they come down in price before I've got to actually buy them, box them up and sell em on.
