So I am trying to sell brand new SRAM Force Crank, and BB on craigslist for 400. No one seems to be interested. Asking too much?

Yes. It's available here (http://elitecycling.biz/page.cfm?PageID=55&action=details&sku=CR2719) for $361. As a private party you have to beat dealer prices by a comfortable margin before people will bother.

I won't bother with anything used, no matter how lightly, if the price is anywhere near what I can get it for new.

As I said in my original post it's brand new.

Yeah, but if I can get it from a dealer vs random internet guy on craiglist for the same price, I'll take dealer every single time.

They are about $300 on eBay. Try that price maybe you'll get a buyer who wants to see before they buy...

Based on Ebay completed auction prices you would be lucky to get $250

You'll have to login to see completed auction prices, but they range from $173 to 260.
