not agreed why should not prices be public? if someone asks for something a trader could just reply with a price who cares if it's fluctuating with time? we're not talking about putting full stocks on the interweb either allthough that would be a great idea for us consumers.. thats what we're talking about here ain't we? or are we talking about businesses that needs to make a profit to stay in business? < totally understand that but my interest is on the other side and so should all others interest on here be on the side of the end user not the other way around... I dont mind spending monies on a forum trader rather then going to the interweb and pay a nobody 3% less. The soft skills are far more important then price, customer service and shipping speed and quality of received goods, get sound advice on what to get etc and not be pointed to whatever is in stock...
