Just outlaw price discussion on the threads.
so if someone tried to sell a flintstones for 10k, how would that possibly be justified unless it's gold plated? Completely impractical and unpolicable.
If something was Stolen (unfortunately we have had that before) then would that be outlawed too to call that out? How about if someone wanted to tell the seller they were charging too little? Does it work both ways?
Free speech and debate doesn’t control prices, buyers do.
Actually sellers and buyers do. You make someone sell something for less than they want to...Doesnt happen unless you are one of those lucky people that can sell sand in Dubai
Anyhow - we have been here before. Haven't we @Paul ?
Oh yes Phil - it's like a never ending circle..
There was a workable solution in place. Where were all these people that said they liked the "newer" solution when it was being discussed?
I completely get it was a little impractical to some...we would have worked a way past that... However, as i said at the time, it was built as a sales engine. But people didnt like it as they had to make one or two more clicks, or issues will still outstanding (those are now resolved i hasten to add).
Cant please everyone.. i get it.
I'm fed up of this whole issue... there IS no clear right or wrong answer. I worked for months (along with some willing volenteers) to give a working solution that people decided didnt work for them... so i gave in to pressure and reverted it back by popular demand.
So, you now have the solution that you wanted back... comments and all as was discussed.... and you arent happy with that either??
Sorry if i sound really ****ed off... however thats because I am. I am fed up with people complaining about things and starting arguements....Me and the other Admins try to make this place a nice place to visit... chilled, helpful, practical... however all thats happened recently is stress and hassles.
I do remember this WAS discussed... the consesnsus was that comments would be allowed, and if those related to price then so be it, the seller could ignore it. In theory, the easist action (in my view) if I was the seller and someone did this to me, would be to explain all the mods on the machine in detail, as is done here, and you know what - the price is the price... you dont have to buy it...
Some people like the mods and would pay to have them added. some dont like them. The price is the price... not prepared to pay it or discuss in a PM with the seller... move along...
And to those that are complaining about completely unrelated comments on sales threads.. oh the irony.... look which section this is in and what threrad it is about...
EDIT : and if this was facebook and ytou were selling an overpriced pin there would be PLENTY of people calling that out... how is that any different... And if this was Ebay people just wouldnt bid... Pins will find their own price.. too high and they wont sell. Too low and it will fly out the door.
