    Quoted from Damonator:

    All of this recent PinGreed is an absolute cancer. I thought these sale posts were jokes at first, but I realize now it’s a dangerous trend that’s spreading.
    A BKSOR topper for $4.5k?
    A PotC for $39k?
    A WoZ YBR for $19?
    A HUO MB for $20k?
    An EM Joker Poker for $7.5k?
    How do we get out of this mess? Can we just auto-delete sale posts that have 30+ downvotes? Any other ideas?

    Stop trying regulate the world based on your ‘moral outrage’ - you are the cancer.

    Quoted from Tomass:

    Yeah, but we also have free speech to bitch about asking prices.

    I agree with you, though the OP was suggesting deleting people’s sale ads based on people feeling the price was too high. That’s some BS.

    No one is ‘entitled’ to buy someone else’s property for less than that owner values it. Total BS.

    Feels to me like many here are calling people asking for high(er than YOU want) prices greedy while failing to acknowledge your own greed, i.e. demanding someone is not able to possibly profit from a sale of their property at whatever the market will pay.

    Quoted from Damonator:

    I’ve change my mind. Young people suck. Let’s jack up the prices so high that only us old farts can afford it.

    You all are now claiming this is about ‘helping the youth’? That is rich.

    Quoted from woody76:

    If our government keeps on doing what they are doing we are going to be in the same boat as our neighbors to the north of us.

    I am a little confused as to when you all think the ‘free market’ is acceptable and good and when it needs to be regulated by some ambiguous group of people?

    I think I am really missing some key element of this whole conversation.
