Why not have some sort of "What's this worth?" thread in the parts section?
For example:
I have an unused Motegi badge I think I might sell, but I don't know what it's worth. I tried looking for another for sale as a rough guide; but didn't see one on eBay, none advertised for sale here, and I don't think you can get them from Honda anymore.
- Now, I don't want to go make a thread in the parts section asking what it's worth, then have a page or two of suggestions, and then within that thread put it up for sale.
I also don't want to then edit my first post in that thread to then advertise it as up for sale and then have several newly-redundant posts following it debating a price, this would be confusing for newcomers to the thread.
I also don't want to just advertise it for sale with a 'make me an offer' price... I don't like doing that, because I don't know what it's worth and don't want to turn away reasonable offers or accept unreasonable ones. I also think that sometimes puts people off because they may not know themselves or might be concerned with making a ridiculous offer.
And lastly, I don't want to make a completely new thread because then there's two threads essentially about the same thing (the forum gets a bit messy then), or some people might post in both topics or the wrong one saying "Oh yes Gorgon, I'll buy it, take my money quick!" - confusion about who was first ensues.
Is this a good idea or shall I just concentrate on washing myself in future?
