Yes, I realize that. I知 just tired of seeing it everywhere and again if you have an item that could sell for $300 and put it in a classifieds, would you ever charge or even advertise it for $299 and if not why? No, I値l answer that. Because we would feel like a smacked ass to advertise like that. Why, are we not royal like the businesses? No because we are not motivated by what drives most businesses. Your money. I say most because there may be a few that actually care about the welfare of the human race. A few. Not the majority.
