Q: Why remove price when item is sold?

[eBAUMANN]

It is the duty of a seller to do right by themselves in selling their items, and that means different things to different people.

Some people just want it gone, they want to give someone a deal, their time and space in the garage are worth more to them than the extra $500 they might make holding out at a higher price for a couple months.

Thats cool and all, good on them, I aspire to reach a place of financial comfort one day when I too can do the same.

But this is the exception, not the rule.

Most sellers (who want to get the best price for their item) will do a little poking around online (ebay, forums, etc) or ask friends to figure out what the going rate for their item might be.

On the flip side of this, most buyers will also do their research before making a purchase. If you have an eye on a particular item (of which there is more than one), you really should watch a few auctions to see what things are selling for before buying.

Paceline is a place of informed (maybe even OVER informed) buyers and sellers...if you dont know what something is worth, just ask someone who might have a clue via PM.
