Folks can have two different attitudes, I think. One is the "I wanna help another brother/sister/enthusiast out and give a like-minded person a great deal on something I've had a chance to enjoy" kind of outlook and the other is, "I can probably get the most amount of money for my item by marketing it to folks I know are already interested in it rather than Craigslist/eBay/etc." Both sides are understandable.

On the buyer's side, I think (and I'm guilty of this too) there may be an unreasonable expectation to get nothing but GREAT deals from fellow enthusiasts. We've all spent coin on our hobbies, and there's nothing wrong with trying to get as much coin back as long as you do it ethically. Market value is market value; if someone can get $2200 for damaged wheels that sold for $2400 new, then that's what they're worth, I guess. If they can't get it, the price will lower!
