Its good we require a price in the f/s forums, but people easily circumvent this by putting "10000000000 /offer" and such. can we change it to reasonable offer?

personally i think its fine the way it is. The way i vue it is you put down what YOU think tis worth and let people go from there. cuz what its WORTH and what you are gonna get for it are 2 different things. You rarely see someone pulling the $1000000 price tag on stuff here anyways. You bring up a valid point tho and im not bashing it by all means im just showing the other side of it.

4. All items must contain a price, method of payment, thorough description. This includes items you are willing to trade for if not listed for sale.
As we all know, putting a price in is a required forum rule. At times people just want to trade for something and a jacked up price is used to discourage cash offers. It's always been this way and there haven't been any complaints.
If you feel that the offer is to high then offer something that you think is reasonable, odds are is that the seller will say NO and if you are lucky, they might accept it.
It's pretty much the same thing when people post NO TRADES about 50 times in bold. It's there to discourage something that they don't want.
Besides what is "reasonable" to you might not be "reasonable" to them
