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?

I would put the retail price when originally purchased and then put current price in the description. I am the type not to buy something if I think the seller is spinning any information and I check out everything before I send a stranger money. And I doubt I am the only one like this.
In my opinion,at the time it was purchased. Others will disagree and that's perfectly fine.
I agree with both of you, and certainly legitimate to say that the current price is xyz in the description - always seems dishonest otherwise. Big issue with Manley gear at the moment after their recent price increases.

The only retail price that is relevant is the current price. It matters what it would cost to buy a new one. It does not matter what the seller paid for it.
