Ads without asking prices

Can we make a rule here on STR that anyone selling something in the market place forum must list an asking price or starting price for their wares? Just my feeling. We get a lot of people selling stuff that don't post a price. It's kind of hard to even start a discussion if you don't know the seller's expectations.

"Make me an offer" is not really a true price since most people have at least a ball park in mind of what they want to get.

I could link to many ads as examples, but I prefer not to single anyone out.

 

always offer them $2

it has always sparked a couple heated conversations on a car website i'm on lol

 

I know what ya mean, but it is their ad. Just fire them a PM to see what they are asking.

 

All good ideas for sure. I just feel like we should cut to the chase instead of PMing or lowballing people.

 

i will no longer read an ad without an asking price

 

how do you know it lacks an asking price without reading it?

 

it will be hard since i ignore about 51% of the members on here

 

I would say 51% of the members on here ignore you but then that excludes me since I just commented on your post...I hate Catch 22s

 

as long as Steppie does not ignore me, i could care less about the other people

 

couldn't

you meant couldn't

 

guero, i really enjoy your new avatar.

 

no, there's still good in him. i know it.

 

yea well one time he came up on me and grabbed my camelback and made me pedal harder...yea thats not very nice yea...:lol:

 

i learned that trick from a southern dandy

 

would you take a Dell? comes with free cacti needles

 

thanks for the new sig bubb...

and remember....you may not see me, but i'll always be around

 

I like make offer adds myself. gives me one shot to "low ball" it eh.
Also when (keep this in mind folks) I post a make offer ad I'll pretty much give it away. I'm more trying to have fun with the sale then making any money. I just like to wheel n deal and or horse trade.

 

Some folks

maybe do not know what stuff is worth. I have seen some really high asking prices and some blow out deals on this site. Duno:?:

But then again taking a bunch of offers on a used pair of gloves is:drunk:

 

Got your back homie...:steppie:

 

Nam....the one and true unibomber!

Don't leave home without it!
