If people are not capable enough to find out information via search engines on their own they deserve to cough up some $$ if you are just here for a free ride.
This is the most nonsensical thing I have ever heard. A lot of people are new to collecting and don't know where to look. Especially with his stuff, because really, how often do you find a boxed Chubby Cherub? Seeing as you joined NA one month ago, looks like you'd fit right into this "charged for Price Check" category.
If I had to pay to price check on something I had 0 clue after I did research I would be fine. I´m not saying you need to charge $10 or even $5 but just a small charge will turn people away like this. Regardless what people think morally about offering here $100, if she accepted that is her own fault for not doing research prior to putting up for sale. You can not expect putting things up for offer without a starting general price range and getting fair offers from everyone.
You also seem to not realize the economy is shit and it will never fully regenerate but you seem to want to keep killing the small business men by giving free advice when people work hard in the business to know prices on the spot. The entertainment industry is already putting a huge kill on the buying-selling industry then you just keep offering free advice to people who will never give back to an already small website. If she sells her items after she got her advice and donates I would be cool with it. But her plan is just to get a fat payday and go on her way 99% of the time.
Hate to say it so harshly, but, if that was the most nonsensical thing you have ever heard you are clearly not to my standards of intelligence.
