Retail?


When listing an item's new retail, should the price be the current retail, or the price of the item at the time it was purchased? If you know someone bought an item for $2,500, it is 3 years old, and the say the current price is $3,300 and are asking $2,200 - is this appropriate and honest or somewhat not?

Guess we need a "Price Police", not going to happen. The current new price, original price, or what someone actually paid to a dealer are all considered retail. Should I buy a used piece of equipment, and know the price is fair, compared to market value, bluebook, sales history, etc, what difference does it make as to the listed retail by the seller? I am more concerned with condition and history of that particular unit. It makes no sense to even list the new retail for a used piece of gear. If you buy a used car, or anything else, does the seller list, or quote a new retail price?
Some sellers are very sensitive if you ask the date of manufacture of a component.
That would make me wonder what else they wanted to hide.
