Here is another perspective - as a seller who is not looking to maximize the prices I can get for stuff, I do love the convenience of TPC. I probably could have gotten a lot more for the (very nice) Evil Following that I sold to them, but I didn’t have to deal with the big time sink of doing it myself (or god forbid, parting out). For someone who loves bikes but doesn’t have the free time to deal with the considerable overhead of flogging used stuff on the Internet, it’s a real treat. Time is money.
