Of course it was only a matter of time... Checked my local Craigslist ..... $4500 and $5800. Both insanely greedy, but one has a sob story that he bought one for him and his wife, now his wife is Making him sell one for $4500.
First you were greedy enough to take not one, but 2 from new dealer inventory .... Then you try to cover your loss by adding 50% mark up .... I hope you choke on it !

it's not greed, it's supply and demand... where there's an abundance of demand, someone will come up with a supply.
remember Xboxes when they first came out? Or PS3s or Wiis, or generators last year, or that Obama spiderman comic book, tickle me elmos, etc.?

Difference is, I can wait. I won't die if I don't have a Grom in 2013 I liked the dealer that I talked to on Saturday. MSRP, plus $125 set up fee, plus tax and tags. $3400 and change out the door. That I can handle.

Wait, there is an Obama Spider-Man book ?? .... I definitely don't need that !

And Tickle me Elmo ... Had one of those. Paid sticker price for it, kept it in a closet. A couple years later it wasn't worth the red fur it was sewed in.

Supply and demand... Someone will pay...

 

[Cadimanjd]

As it sounds like a rip off, I paid $4500 OTD from my dealer and it sux because I keep hearing people saying they paid $3700-3900 OTD uhhhh...... Pain!!!

 

[rakpak]

BUT, you have a new baby Grom, no? Many of us don't.

 

[jedimike]

Can't really blame him... If you're going to be selling one, now is the best time and you might as well make a small profit. In a couple years we'll be buying them on CL for $1500.

$5800 is not a Small profit

wow I am speechless. No different then those dirty scalpers that buy out event tickets and sell them for triple the price for profits. Can't believe its coming down to this for bikes....

 

[floppyzebra]

I would have done the same knowing some guy that's loaded with cash would mind mind blowing his money to have one "now" and not have to wait.


When I got the first one over here I thought about putting it up for sale as I'm sure someone would have paid 5k for it.

and that is when there will be GROMs everywhere.

$1500 GROMs. Heck of a deal!

Yes it is when in Thailand where they make the Honda GROM and MSX125 they are selling for $2,200-$2,300 OTD US dollars.

Average price in the USA is $3,300-$3,600 and the sales person is still making money.
