BEFORE BUYING: Watch out for resellers!
Someone from Patagonia kindly pointed out to me that there are forum members purchasing product from used gear sites like wornwear.com and reselling the gear here.
So these members are not getting some $$ back for their well-loved stuff, they are just turning gear over for profit. And you suckers are falling for it!
This is a thread that was called out as an example:

We often have people looking to register for the specific purpose of selling to all of you (Exhibit A). I think we should further restrict new members from selling stuff until they are a proven member of the community. That's something we can decide later.
But for now, what other deal sites are out there? Maybe we should keep a list here for people to do a quick price check against and call people out when necessary.

Yeah, i'd say they weed ( or call ) themselves out. "HIGH END SUPER SALE" does not scream "hey guys, just cleaning out my closet "
