Lorex marketing sure does work

I have been selling a few cameras that have either been replaced or don't do well for my application (lots of low light at night).

I listed a Empiretech 4KT, a Empiretech 4KX 6mm, a few DAHUA DH-IPC-HDW5231RN-Z 2mp cameras and a Lorex 4K 8mp camera which was replaced by another camera.

Anyway, out of the cameras listed, the 4KT sold within 24 hours ($115). But the Lorex I just listed today, sold in an hour! Admittedly, it was a low sale price ($50), but I had the Dahua 2mp cameras (which I think is a better performing camera) for the same price and it barely has 2 views. Seems people chase big numbers instead of performance.

The Lorex would have sat in a box here unused, so I figured why not see if I can get some money towards my new camera fund. I have 6 more to list once I get the time to replace them with the other cams I have.

Yep, many consumers chase MP and why companies can get away with higher MP and cheaper materials and poor performance.

That's fine by me. I already have the Lorex cameras, and they would only sit in a box unused once replaced. Why not list them and get some cash towards new cameras?
