is there a reason why someone would take down the price of their bat after it's been sold? if not, leave that **** up. i see a ton of threads in the sales area with a bat description and the word "SOLD" after it with no price listed. that **** is aggravating. leave the price up. it helps others gauge what they should sell theirs for or what they should pay if they're looking to buy one.
Leave up the price on sold bats...

I always put sold up just to stop the flood of pm's coming in, never thought about it, i do see your point, but I noticed everyone else doing it so i did, monkey see, monkey do i guess. there are pricing guides if you are concerned about prices. Each sell has different circumstances so prices very.

I think people remove the price because they continue to get offers for an item that has already sold. I usually change the script to a very light color so there can be no mistaking if the item is still for sale or not.
the price guides help, but they're kinda general. i prefer to check out recent sales to get a more accurate read on what a bat is worth.

This is the first post in a long time that someone actually is complaining about a selling thread and the actual complaint is worthy ..
Going rates can be determined by a price of an item of something that is sold ... not by ones opinion what they feel an item is worth. Putting up the word SOLD next to the sale price HELPS with future sales at this site.

Agreed.... If you want to know a price of a bat get off your lazy ass and do a price check with pics and you will get a good idea of how much to sell it for. IJS

You would only be leaving the asking price anyway....not the price it actually sold for

that makes sense. why just do a search of what already exists on the boards when you can add yet another thread and take more time waiting for responses to get the same info.
no. when the bat is sold you can add whatever you want. i.e. "SOLD - $XXX" (whatever the final amount was). throw that ish up in a bold red font like jaj23 does and everyone benefits.
i agree. i don't know why this isn't a sales thread rule. like posting a price.

dude just pm them and ask..... it has happen to me 7-8 times after a sale no biggie
why would you ask people to PM you then wait for your response to get information that you can just leave on the sale page for everyone to find at their leisure and without bothering you. makes no sense.

Because there is no reason to delete it and it makes it easy for the seller to for example advertise something as OG and then send you a RI then you can't even verify to yourself if they advertise OG or RI.

as do I & this should be the accepted principle,maybe added to the rules...the price guides are good but,are not very true.Personnally I'd like to see them gone,it's added to the "lowballing" when people see it in writing,there used to be a word of mouth price range gauged off other sales.Its kinda like speculators on the commodities market & why the oil price is so f`ed up...this is working in the opposite manner tho.

Ya, makes it alot easier to "find a crack" and relist the same bat for more when you find out its worth more. Not that anyone here would do that...
