Is there a rule against it on MR ? If there isnt, why don't the vendors list prices of the merchandise they are advertising? It would make shopping a lot easier.
If a regular member needs to list a price on an item they are selling because if they don't the thread will be closed by a mod, then I think a vendor should be required as well or there threads should be closed too...
Just browsing the vendor sales up right now on the home screen, HoF is the only one with listed prices. Sean, sorry but changing prices is not an excuse. Stores and websites have changing prices as well and they just update their listings. Different prices for different members is also wrong. If you are doing a friend a favor and giving a price break, then do it offsite or via PM but not on an advertised sale. Its one thing to ask a price on a specific item you are looking for but if you are browsing or comparison shopping, you can't send out 30 PM's and posts to get some prices. I dont know about others but when I walk into an LFS ( or any store ) for that matter, and there aren't prices listed, my BS alarm goes off and I usually walk right out.
Chief had a gripe about members not supporting vendors but vendors have to do their part as well.
This is why I suggested a WTB forum just for vendors.Its one thing to ask a price on a specific item you are looking for but if you are browsing or comparison shopping, you can't send out 30 PM's and posts to get some prices.
Every vendor is different...some stores won't give you pricing over the phone either...it is just that sellers preference. It is really annoying sometimes but some people just won't change their policy. They want you to come in, more chance of selling the item or something else.
Honestly I think it's good the way it's set up.

A vendor shouldn't have to list prices. There's a lot that goes into pricing.
Most Vendors here are not stores where you can just walk in and browse, you need to make an appointment and you don't know what the price is a head of time, so for all you know you can be wasting your time, sometimes even have tolls and gas...
