I really don't see the big deal. If Kevin doesn't post a price, email or PM him and say hey Kevin what were you thinking price wise? If he refuses to answer and insists you give a price first and you don't want to, move on. Either way, no biggie.

As Ben and others have stated, there are many of us that don't even bother inquiring about an item when a price is not listed. You're right, it's not a big deal - it's just the point of the matter. I think if someone is serious about selling an item, then they would post a price. No price = not serious.

I have read all 75 posts in this thread & for the life of me, I don't know WHY!

Me personally I usually buy raw because it is what I prefer. If I do buy graded 99% of the time I crack them out. I have around 10-15 in slabs.

I have had some problems in the past with very rare and high graded cards that I posted a price on. Someone comes along interested in the card, but they have a trade that they think a lot more of than me. Can make for hard feelings. Having said that, most all of my cards are priced. This topic quite frankly has been a huge waste of my time when other things much more constructive could have been discussed....What is the huge deal anyway? I dont get it....

Why don't we instead make a rule banning all threads that are a monumental waste of time. If your biggest problem is you're crying because people don't place prices in their threads, it sounds to me like life is pretty good for you. Count your blessings and move on. What's next? Are you going to be upset if the photos and scans in the latest pickups thread doesn't include a wide enough variety of races and sexual orientations???? Geez.

We'll all make a concerted effort to ensure that future topics are worthy of your time.
