    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    Also I really trust the system that is the US Post Office. I have had so many good experiences with them shipping things from one location where I lived to another one where I went to live. Also I trust them to get my packages to my Ebay customers. So far it has been good for us, me and my...

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    I think I just don't trust most human beings in general, but I trust systems. Systems like Paypal and Ebay and a university system. It's really hard for me to trust individual human beings. So it's not personal. I guess it's hard for most humans to trust me too. I can see why. Humans are hard to...

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    Yes I understand that is a method that some people do use and that it creates trust. I prefer to sell by Paypal. Eventually, I hope someone would ask to see my binoculars in a video chat with me and then they can see me, my campus, and my binoculars, and then maybe they could be interested in...

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    Well, maybe. I would prefer to be paid first and then ship the binoculars, like how Ebay works. Even though they hold my funds for 14 days I still know they are there. I can see them. It's reassuring to see them. Then they are in my bank.

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    I'm not sure if this is something that I can post here, but an anonymous member suggested I do so. Thank you to the anonymous members from this forum who donated to my GoFundMe that they found on my Facebook. :) I did not ask them to do it. They just did it. For this I am grateful. :) Thanks...

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    Well I am not a rich person, I was born into poverty and so I have a poor backstory. Unfortunately, I am still poor now, only I am trying to work my way out of it by going to grad school. But it is extremely difficult and always has been for me to escape poverty. It has been an ongoing struggle...

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    Thank you. Yes I have used PayPal before, and it seems to work ok for me. Please let me know if you are interested in the binoculars I have for sale or you know someone who is. Thank you. https://www.birdforum.net/threads/meopta-meopro-8-x-42-hd-for-sale-400obo.438048/#post-4451809

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    Yes, questions are fine, I will reply to all the questions. Probably with a lot of words because that is how I talk. My answers will probably contain some of my trauma, because I have PTSD. I am answering all the questions honestly. I am willing to meet on campus outdoors with my binoculars by...

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    Yes, I can see your point and if I was on an established forum and had established friendships with people, I could see why the group wouldn't want to let new people in or would be worried about scammers who are criminals. I guess it's important to distinguish between criminals and newcomers. We...

    Would you be interested in a discontinued Meopta MeoPro HD 8 x 42? I have it listed in the classifieds: https://www.birdforum.net/threads/meopta-meopro-8-x-42-hd-for-sale-400obo.438048/

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    I usually just tell lots of detail in person and by chat and on the phone because I am a verbal learner and processor. I just naturally talk a lot. Some people are like that. I am a storyteller by nature. I'm not really making excuses, moreso trying to stand by my principals of who I want to...

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    Would you say $400 is a better price or $500? Please be honest. I'll take your advice. :) and LOL :p :D They should "let it go" like Elsa from Frozen ;)

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    Yes I guess that ordinary human writting is kinda like recycling. It can feel that way when I have to cite sources and repeat things other people have said to write about my topics for class, or my thesis. I try to create new meanings and at least I know it's new for me, and I am growing and...

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    No, I always turn in my own work. Usually I get a decent grade. I have a 3.34 out of 4.0 GPA. I do not agree with cheating. I think it's immoral. I'm in the College of Liberal Arts within the Sociology program but the degree inside of that which I am pursuing is Sustainability, so maybe that's...

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    I have never heard of ChatGPT, but I will look into it. Or I could just learn how to use forums, be more mindful and not get ahead of myself when I am trying to do stuff on them, and become a better writer. Sounds better. It will take longer...but then I get the skills. :) Yay skills. Yeah I can...

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    I am sorry for any confusion that I have caused. I am a neurodivergent person, so I don't always communicate in the most clear ways. I will try to edit, check my work, and correct things, if I make mistakes and confuse people. Thank you.

    Why are Meopta's so hard to sell?

    Yes I only found out about you yesterday from searching Google for "How/Where to sell your binoculars." I only have one pair of binoculars and I do love them. I use them to go bird watching on my college campus and surrounding green spaces. They are Meopta MeoPro 8 x 42 HD. I don't know what...
