Should for sale listings be allowed in the b/s/t without prices

[BeanTown]

I just made my confidential vote. After seeing the results, it looks exactly like the GOP!

No- Trump
Yes- Kasich
I Don't Care - Cruz

We're all 'mostly' knowledgeable and experienced collectors here. If it's a card you want, make a realistic offer. If not, don't click on the post.

That can work the other way though. An experienced and knowledgeable collector or seller should know what they need for a card and be able to list a price.

I picked I Don't Care, but my second choice would be Yes. Like most of you, I don't usually make offers on cards without a starting price. But as a general rule, I'm against excessive rules. I understand that some of you don't like posts without a price, but adding a rule that's it's not allowed because you don't like it just doesn't seem right.

However, if there is no price and you PM for a price which they ask you to do in the post and then refuse in response to the PM thats sort of ridiculous too

Whenever someone says make an offer, I always think of this scene from "Tin Men":


CAR SALESMAN
Now, how much are you willing to
pay?

BB
Four dollars... I want to pay four
dollars a month.

CAR SALESMAN
That's not an honest answer.

BB
What do ya want to hear? That I'd
love to pay three hundred and fifty
a month... is that what you want to
hear? Tell me how much you want me
to pay and I'll tell you how much
I'll pay, but don't do a hustle on
me... I don't like that. How much
do I want to pay? I'd like to pay
nothing!

This is probably the best argument against requiring a price that I could think of. In general I am against excessive rules whenever possible. I still think if something is offered for sale a starting price should be provided. I like that there aren't many rules on this site, but in my opinion this would be a good one.
