I think some people are way too sensitive when it comes to the for sale section.

If someone has a part listed incorrectly or if what they're asking is astronomical, I see no probably in the people "policing" themselves by telling the poster that the part is described wrong or the price is ridiculous. It keeps people from getting burned and it keeps the prices down for everyone.

Someone can list a part and have 10 replies of "Wow great deal!" but if one person chimes in on another part and says the person is asking way too much, it's like they are the devil and need to mind their own business.

Yes,please speak up. The trouble arises when it becomes a big arguement or fight when someone says something abusive and then the original poster takes offence.

As far as prices go it's all subjective. Obviously the owner of the car/parts feels thier price is fair. Anyone paying thier price cant disagree too much either.

That being said,you cant police stupidity and there are some who will pay any price to get what they want simply because they have money. This is where I draw the line because if buyer A payes 3X the going rate for a part,then all the rest of the folks with the same part feel they are justified in getting the same price. This has helped ruin the hobby for many folks who can just barely afford to put together thier hotrod already.There are also many parts "flippers" here who pick up parts on the cheap and then resell them here. I dont have a problem with this as long as the customer is getting fair value.

Not pointing fingers at anyone o.k? But if you can afford to pay more and have,try to keep it on the quiet side so us poorer folks dont suffer the side effects.
