Trading and Selling "Prices"
Look, I'm getting pretty sick and tired of trying to sell my items to people, and they won't buy it for it's true worth, and you can't tell them otherwise because "Price is Firm". I think that's complete crap. Why should I have to sell my item for less than it's value just because they're too stupid to know the real price. Same thing with buying items. They expect you to pay more than it's worth at times, and it's not fair. I know I can just put up my items for trade myself, but it's usually faster to search for the item specifically. Let me show you some trades that back this up.

Here's what I propose. People cannot BUY an item for less than it's worth, unless specifically stating "Quick Buying", and people cannot SELL an item for more than it's worth, unless specfically stating why it's worth more than it should be (parts, paint, KS, etc.) and trades that don't follow this criterion should be reported.

Thank you,
Oblivion_Continuum.

We do not regulate or enforce prices and we have no plans on doing so. People are free to set their own prices and negotiate a better deal, and pricing guides should be used only as an estimate of an item's value. "Worth" is a very relative word.

Oh, so I can just buy whatever I want for the price I want?

Wrong, but thank you for the insult. If I know an item is worth a key, why would I sell it to someone for 5 Ref?

Okay, we're stopping before we get any deeper and into a flame war.

We're not going to police the site to that type of extent. Things like "prices" have different meanings to different people, and we will not promote nor discredit one specific notion of that.
