Price in main thread or title

Support for accounts and things that don’t have variables such as services

agreed with gp prices atleast. should be visible on title or in thread.

GP prices change frequently & is a rule against placing it in the title for this very reason. Then you run into scenarios of the title price not matching the offered price and false advertising.

@Kanye summed it up perfectly
GP prices are way too volatile to keep this accurate.
it would need a super vague "starting at..." to be considered sensible, which again can be considered manipulation

 

I have like 50 prices for my services basing on customer's stats for just Fire Cape service. There are services that have even more price configurations because of availability of more diversified services.
Account stores have multiple different builds available at totally different prices.
Gold stores usually determine rate by payment method and volume of trade.
It's not possible to implement it in thread title it's simply unrealistic.

Prices listed in the thread of account sales, support. From the aspect of a new user who may have stumbled upon this site, it could be very discouraging seeing you have to click this link to discord, click this button to verify your discord in that discord server and then majority of the time the account isn't even listed within the server, let alone the price. So now you have to open a ticket, wait for a response, just to find out the account may be out of your budget. That is NOT buyer friendly of the slightest.
Grocery stores dont have "see price at checkout" listed on every item in the store.


As far as gold buying/selling and services, no support. As others have stated, prices change too often

Hard agree. That was the biggest turn-off for me as a relatively new user on Sythe. It's asinine to have to crawl through multiple threads just to click on a discord banner, get redirected to my discord app, verify that I've read the TOS, react to a message to unlock every chat, then look through the chats to find the account I want a quote on, realize the account either isn't even available anymore or have to start a ticket to find out more, and then either leave the server or put it into another folder of shit/overpriced/mismanaged OSRS discords while I go to the next Sythe thread on my browser. I think having at least somewhat updated pictures of accounts and pricing on a thread is an easy bar to achieve. Worst case, the account isn't available anymore, but at least there was a picture. I don't see why I have to imagine what your arbitrary total level account looks like instead of having any baseline first glance from a single screenshot before I click on your shitty discord.

Also, I get that gold prices change, but surely there's a better way to advertise somewhat current rates? Half of the discords advertised on Sythe don't even have accurate gold rates. There's always some dogshit bot with a graphic that's 3 or 4 months outdated, a message from a discord mod under it that says BOT IS OUT OF ORDER, CURRENT RATE ____, and the fucking discord mod message is out of date too. From my experience, most of the time you have to make a ticket anyways. It's baffling to me that, in a game and market completely dominated by botting/automation, it comes down to someone literally typing or copy-pasting the current rate after manually reading a ticket request, every, single, time.

I think we could have this as an opt-in system where users can push their latest price manually or programtically and have it display somewhere on thread listing (or in the forum itself).

The benefit of sellers implementing this would likely be increased sales because it removes a barrier for a potential buyer to getting the price information they need.
