[quote name='John.Q.Dough']Looking for a group for the Prince of Persia Epilogue DLC. (Yes, the really old one.

)
If we get four people interested, then we can do $3.25 for the resellables and $1.75 for the phantoms. Otherwise, it'll be $5 a share.[/QUOTE]
I hosted a group for PoP Epilogue DLC a loooooong time ago. Unfortunately I have no idea who might still have an account of this so you'll just have to hope someone sees your request. I can't imagine they still aren't done with it yet.
[quote name='NSYNC']You could do what I've done in the past and currently with NCAA Football 12 and just attempt to sell the last phantom later. Once you find a buyer, have Gannikus deactivate for them. Unfortunately you'd be the odd man out for the time being.
I don't recommend doing this too often though as I ran myself $91 in the hole at one point, haha (now down to $30). $2.25 isn't so bad.[/QUOTE]
It's a valid option but not one I'm willing to take. It speeds groups along but it could also potentially lose you money. For potential buyers, there's a difference from buying a slot in an incomplete group and buying a slot off someone. Knowing that someone in your position has had trouble filling the final spot and has covered the balance temporarily, it would give the potential buyer bargaining power.
Scenario #1: You cover the balance and have two options.
1) Sell the extra slot for a reduced price. (Lose a bit of money)
2) Don't sell at all. (Lose a bit more money)
Scenario #2: You wait to complete the group.
1) Sell the extra slot for standard price. (Lose/gain no money)
2) Don't sell the extra slot. Eventually disband the group. (Lose/gain no money)
So it all boils down to how much you want said group to happen. For me, I have no problem at all waiting for the group to fill. As well as bigwig and Gannikus. If they are in a hurry, then they are obviously free to take option #1.
Obviously, with a game that has higher demand, that option is absolutely viable. Very often, as soon as I start a group for a game that will obviously be in high demand, I'll already be on PSN buying the game so I can get a headstart on downloading.
