I also normally enter ***SOLD*** next to my asking price. However, a couple buyers have PM'd me after the transaction and requested that I remove the price stating they don't want everyone knowing their business. So, in those few instances, I did remove it per their request.

This is a very polarizing issue obviously... It's like gun control. I do not think everyone will ever agree on this.

I'm sure there has to be a happy medium.

How about leaving the original asking price?

No matter how many times you reduce it, just leave that first asking price.

This way people can see where you started.

I understand the point of if you get slaughtered on a deal and people will make you feel like crap (it's happened to me), but that is part of the game. We all get burned at some point.

Maybe everyone throws in 25 cents at the beginning on the year, and the person who gets killed the worst gets the money.

That would offset some thought of people getting scared about getting screwed in the BST

That's how I would approach it, too, Jason. I have no problem divulging price information, but if a buyer asks me to keep that information a private matter for any reason, I absolutely respect their wishes.
