Alright, I'm sure all you guys that like to buy/sell/trade on the forum have noted that it is often very, very difficault to find out what the other guy wants; here's an example:

Thread- FS/FT, Tricked Black Magic Cocker

Post Seller- "Hey, how much are you looking for?"

Post Buyer- "I dunno, how much do you have?"

Post Seller- "$650.00 plus I can get a bit more if you need."

Post Buyer- "Oh, well, I'm not looking for any money, looking more to trade."

Post Seller- "What are you looking for?"

Post Buyer- "I dunno, what do you have?"

Post Seller- "Free Flow Cocker with RACE and a 88/4500psi Nitro Duck tank, lmk."

Post Buyer- "PM me."

Alright, now, lets look at this: we all are tired of the forum being cluttered with useless or otherwise unneccary posts; if the Seller would post a ballpark estimate of how much he wants or what trades he will consider, that would save a lot of time and aggrivation in trying to get a price or see if you can even trade.

So, I am asking all sellers to post prices, trades, or both in their post to save time and effort and hoping the moderators might even enforce this with some thought.

1.) Sometimes it is best not to post a price as u may have something someone really wants and would pay way more than u want for it. So it works out good for the seller.

2.) It would be imposible and senseless for the mods to inforce this rule, takes 2 much time, and also theres no point in it.

If you had 100 of them it might make sense. However, when there is only one gun exactly like that for trade/sell, there is no set price. You'd like to get as much as you can for it. If you set the price you'd accpet, then you may be under the max you could have gotten. If you compensate by going over what you would sell for, you may scare off someone who would have been able to buy it for how much you want. and of course.... no matter what you say, 75% of the people will low ball you because they again want the most they can get.
