Let’s have fun. This is a “are you ****ting me” prices.

So the only acceptable version of free speech that you want to allow, is to not speak at all... lol

Well they say actions speak louder than words. And some schmuck's $800 Glock that's been listed for months with no offers speaks pretty loudly.

I get what you're saying. Yes these are comical prices we're seeing. But I'd venture to say absolutely nobody is buying them. And if they are, oh well that's on them. I won't lose any sleep over it.

Examples of current retail pricing, as of this morning, from a large LGS: I won't mention them by name, because it's irrelevant... The point is, "the market" isn't jacking prices way up, some goofballs on ODT are.

I always get a kick out of the commentary of the poors that cruise my tables.

haha well that can be your interpretation of the situation but i'd bet most arnt even close to "poors". Getting wealthy is easier when you dont spend stupid money on **** priced out of this world. Wasting that kinda money is what leads to Poors.

So naah i'll keep talking trash with a healthy bank account, i do love when they get mad

 

[CBH13]

They would be a lot less popular and a lot less active.
Please PM a link to a site that is more successful and allows free for all price female dogging in ads. Thanks in advance.

well before the hack i could easily point out AKfiles where it had substantially more traffic and folks would get called out everyday for this kinda ****. and im sure it will be back to just like it was in short order. but i know the one you're wanting me to point at but fact is there are several that allow it.

Once again, you have answered your own whine.
This site is not a two way street, because bashing a seller is not allowed. It is a restricted site and you, despite what you want to believe, signed on to this restricted site of your own free will. It is not the fault of others that you did not read or could not comprehend the rules. You have many options, you can continue to whine, which really makes you appear to be completely ignorant, stop whinning and get over it, or, and this is the path I wish you would take, leave this site and it's unfair practices behind. Another option you have is that you could contact the owner. But it appears you really don't want to take that course of action. I believe you do not want to contact the owner because of the completely inane argument that you present. I will continue to say, ever time you present your moronic argument, IF YOU WANT THE RULES CHANGED, CONTACT THE OWNER. One would think that after this long a period of time, you would grow tired of having your argument ripped for being so stupid. It appears, you just like to whine.

yah know. . . you could just not read the posts complaining about price. . . . ya know. . . . like you tell others to do.

seems like like these threads just as much as everyone else though because you keep coming back. dont like what your reading . . .move along . . . .lawl

I'm glad you know what I want you to point out but my question was at face value. There really aren't. The most successful, by far, do not allow any comments in listings, at all. We've tried to strike a balance to allow informative question asking for the benefit of both sellers and buyers but as in all things, there will always be a vocal few that insist it be like they want. This site is not "just like other sites". What would be the point of that? It was never meant to be and hopefully will never be.

No, we just want it to be a two way street. Part of capitalism is the free market consumer's ability to express their opinion, and that doesn't exist here. The powers that be don't want that, or allow it. So stop saying its all about capitalism, when what we have here is a very restricted and one sided version of it.

You have the ultimate tool to express your thoughts on price... you don’t give them any of your money.

so if you hope that this site never becomes like other sites then why even ask about sites that allow it. But again there are plenty of sites just as large or larger that do allow you to call folks out.

is that the cause of their popularity? i highly doubt it. but it also means you cant say that no successful site allows it.
