Matt- the one part of your argument I disagree with is the influence private transactions have on determining prices. Most private transactions are exactly that- private. And many are exaggerated and can't be documented. It would be extremely irresponsible to post word of mouth prices on the website.

I'm pretty certain Bobby's prices do include the juice, as that is what the real selling price is. And you can't factor in a company's overhead, that is irrelevant.

Typically, house sales are recorded and are publicly available. They don't factor in the broker's fee, or the fact that you paid an exterminator $150 to check for termites before you made the sale. Just the selling price is recorded and posted.
