| It didn't fit into the subject field,
How do you keep the used items prices lower than new ones in your store?
Especially for some items which are small and doesn't much differ when in
new or used, using different discount ratios completely messes with the prices,
sometimes used item becomes more expensive than the new part.
Also I see that older/vintage items even with the niche use that more suitable
for replacement in old/vintage sets are priced lower than the new parts. Why
is it so? (Of course there is the new old stock and it's normal for them
to be priced higher if said part's production has ended)

I often see used/old parts being more expensive than brand new shiny ones.
You can't fight this; solutions:
* sell them even cheaper,
* don't sell those used, sorry

Being old/vintage doesn't automatically brings value.
See me.
Many old/vintage/rare parts are worth nothing because people are simply NOT interested
to buy them, and almost whatever the price is!
Example: sell an old car or an old computer, you'll probably make money.
But sell an old washing machine, it'll be very difficult to make money -
especially when the new ones are cheaper, more efficient, greener, and probably
wash better...
