This is a perfect example of why some members dislike giving out values on an item! If someone comes on here asking for the value of an item, they should have the courtesy to announce where and when the item will be sold, if that is their intention.
Members on here should not have to scout ebay, Craigslist, and other venues to see if it might be offered up for sale! Luckily we have a broad enough base of members that are willing to announce the fact if they happen to stumble across an ad for the item.
Old Gas rules prohibit anyone asking if its for sale and since that courtesy is extended to the collector (picker) with the question on valuation--I would hope that the same courtesy would be extended to those giving out the value!!
It doesn't seem to work that way, so how do we get the point across??
