  • I don't know if this is the place for this kind of request, but anyway.

    Can it be made standard practice to leave the asking price in "for sale" ads after the item has sold? The fact that everyone replaces this with "SOLD" makes it impossible to judge the value of something that you have to sell.

    I don't know if this is appropriate for LFGSS as it isn't a forum in which everyone tries to get every last penny for their spare components/bikes/kit etc. It's really nice to be part of a community where stuff is passed on at low prices just so that people can keep their bikes running. But it is infuriating not to have any idea of the going rate for stuff, partly because you can then over-value items which never sell as a result.

    This.

    Then monetise* it.

    • I know - it's a vile word. And as a concept, it's mercenary. But that's how you pay for your castle in Scotland, Villa in Spain and yacht on the Med.
