The price someone advertises something for, tells you nothing about the price it was actually sold for, nor the circumstances under which it was sold: haggling via PM, a skint vendor, an ignorant buyer, a favour owed or returned etc.
There's no convention, it's just the "path of least resistance" to indicate a sale: replacing £50 with sold, is easier than
£50sold.Having said that, I'm sure there are just as many ads where the item is sold but the ad isn't updated in any way.
