    Do the Price Police Help the PS community by keeping prices as low as possible or does it hurt PS because sellers don't want to deal with the never ending BS and its not worth the hassle?

    Quoted from WaddleJrJr:

    It's good for new users who don't know prices yet to not be fooled into buying something for way too much, but for most of us it doesn't matter because we know what the games are worth and what we'd pay for them.

    Isn't that why clubs exist? If you want a Bride of Pinbot wouldn't you just ask the guys in the club about it? Isn't that why PS list est MV next to game info? Guys who troll (IMO) every single For sale thread over a couple hundred dollars just annoy the shit out of me. What happened to List price? Negotiations? Free Market rule?

    Quoted from pezpunk:

    if you don't a want conversation, don't start a thread.

    I dont mind conversation but attacking people, lying about secret cabal's and posting private PM's on threads are all BS in my book. If the price is that bad in theory wouldn't game just sit and not sell? Why not let that be embarrassment enough. Along with negative feedback rating? Guys with multiple sales 100% positive feedback that are being attacked by guys who have nothing better to do bothers me.

    I was more talking about guys bitching over $300. Against long term Pinside Users not Guys who just show up with an overpriced game out of the blue. But I admit I am of the minority. Doesn't make me wrong just proves the masses aren't always correct!!! Lol!

    Quoted from jchiu:

    I agree with this. Most people are reasonable. People dont comment if it's a few hundred dollars. And if someone really wants it, they'll pay the price regardless of what others say.

    See TeeKee's TWD Premium thread. That's and recent b.s. on a few other threads that were less than $500 between Seller and P.P.
