Maybe because there's no "delete" button?
Why would anybody want those threads to disappear?
Beyond virtually every FS thread being great entertainment, they can provide valuable pricing info for the archives.
Yup. Only about 14 people have the ability to delete threads, and we don't delete them because that messes up the history of Pinside, karma points, links, etc. Most sellers mark it as sold if it does indeed sell, and Robin has the "this is an old thread" disclaimer on threads that are months old to try to keep them from coming back to life on a dead topic such as a sold machine in a for sale thread. New changes are coming soon to the whole market and sale thread issues, stay tuned for that. 
Personally I like having threads saved. The author of the thread should be able to erase prices, etc. though. Nothing worse than having a prospective purchaser come at you with "but you only bought it for XXX".
How much are you asking for this "Why people don't drain topic after sale" machine. I've never heard of that one. Is it a DMD?
Was just wondering , once a machine sells , why still have it posted. Wondering why it didn't just get removed from forum.

Just drain it and pretend that its gone for everyone else too. Really make yourself believe that its really gone. Forget about it, don't think about it. Then and only then will you be content with yourself.

For posterity sake. Thus they should never be deleted.
Quoted from starsky178:Why people don't drain?
It's complicated to explain, but it's primarily due to regional restrictions.
Quoted from Blackbeard:Should "drain" this thread.
