I think WTB ads really should include a price the poster is willing to pay.
I like that we support WTB ads - I think it's a great benefit to the community that you can post what you're looking for and friendly folks will point you in the right direction, whether it be a shop's inventory or a friend who is selling or maybe their own collection.
But I'm getting really annoyed by people who post WTB ads, but refuse to pay anywhere near market price for the gun.
A guy posts WTB GLOCK 19, and you take the time to email him and he says he'll only pay $400 for it, or he wants to trade an old shotgun and a collection of Pez dispensers for it.
There is a difference between "WTB" and "looking for a charity deal." It makes me not want to respond to WTB ads anymore, which defeats their purpose.
