I'm not one of the people pissed off by it, just asking.

Basically for the reasons already mentioned, its also just habit as that seems to be the way it was always done. The only person I owe anything to at that point is the buyer, removing the price also removes irritating the buyer in any way. I would rather make my buyers happy than irritated, return business is the best business.

Agreed with the people who said it was no one's business other than the buyer and seller. Didn't know it was my job to educate the community about prices.

Happy to share info about cards and their history but you're on your own when it comes to prices. Too much emphasis already placed on "values" especially with all the dumb money that has entered the hobby over the past few years.

Whatever AJ Johnson says I agree with.

Sorry, Jupiter is still a planet. Don't confuse it with Pluto which was reclassified as a dwarf planet.

I don't sell often, but when I do, I leave any price information intact. Keep in mind, what I asked for is not necessarily what I might have gotten, but should somebody ask me, I don't have any qualms telling them.

I believe the current polite term is "little planet" wouldn't want to offend.

^This!^

When I sell I always delete my asking price and mark the item sold. If I ask $100 for a card it's really no one's business if I end up selling it for $10 or $1k. This is a hobby to me, not a business; and while I'll talk cards with anyone all day long it's not my job to educate anyone.

I'll admit, I hate seeing the asking price removed but only if I didn't have the opportunity to see it due to work or whatever.

I also understand, even though I haven't sold anything on here, that if a buyer wants the listing/asking price removed, then that's a no brainer, imo, removed it shall be.

This pretty much sums it up
