The way I see it, if someone has an item for sale and is asking for guidance for the sale of the item and someone knowingly misrepresents their knowledge about an item they know is very valuable (hides the information in an effort to obtain the item), then I think there should be an avenue for legal recourse.
On the flip side, if something's for sale and the seller has a set price on it, then it is what it is. You would hope that if someone buys the item knowing they were going to flip it quick for a great profit, then the person buying the item could return and share some of the windfall. Call it good karma. I wouldn't look at it as obligatory.
Honestly, how many of you would inform the seller of the actual value of a box of T206's (that haven't seen the light of day for decades) if someone was selling them at a yard sale for a "steal" of a price?

You said if there was already a price then so be it.
I am guessing not a lot of people would tell.
