It's a great way to try out expensive lights for cheap. Buy a $300 light and sell it for $250 if you don't like it. You're only out $50, and someone else will get a nicely discounted light.

Don't forget that some of us refuse to pay retail, and often buy very nice lights at substantial discounts. Then knocking off $50 allows us to realize a nice profit on the transaction. Also, some guys buy stuff they can NOT afford in the first place, and when more desperate financial pressures crop up they MUST sell something to pay their bills. Or it could just be as innocent as becoming tired of the light, and wanting to clear off their shelf.

Don't over analyze it, jump in and take advantage of the good deal when you see it.

Im just tired of lights,comes and goes in waves.
Selling to afford other lights is a good way to keep the interest fresh.
And in the same time allowing someone else to try a High end light.

Win Win :)

Edit: I never considered myself a BIG time collector though...more of a flashlight junkie.

You can only look at the same lights for so long....:huh:.....and I for one put a limit on my inventory. I like to have enough to have a nice variety, but not too many where they do not get handled. Then again, I am not one of the "Big Time Collectors" you are referring to either so I guess you can disregard my opinion although I am ALWAYS in "The Know".....:p
