>> Hi all:
>> I'd like to get other's opinions on "price heckling". What do I mean by
>> this? Say I post an item for sale, and you think my price is too high.
>> Is it ethical for you, as an uninvolved party, to challenge my pricing
>> publically in the list? I have been very tempted in the past to
>> "heckle" various people, but have refrained, because I gave these people
>> the benefit of the doubt, assuming that they had good reasons for
>> posting the price they did. I also think it sets a bad precident. If
>> people continuously heckle eachother's pricing, I don't think stuff will
>> continue to be advertised here any longer. To me, it's just really rude
>> (you listening, Brad?) to butt in about a price when you aren't planning
>> to buy the item. I have seen cases on rec.photo.marketplace where
>> someone had something sold, then some smart guy price heckled, and the
>> sale fell through. And these weren't cases where the items were
>> overpriced. Let's not let this list drop to the level of r.p.m.
>>
>> Ideas? Thoughts? My next post will be a re-pricing of my lenses, since
>> I'm sure no one will want them at my original prices due to Brad's price
>> heckling.

>> Cheers,
