Can the Mods clean out the For Sale thread? Or, can we delete ours if item is sold?

Default Can the Mods clean out the For Sale thread? Or, can we delete ours if item is sold?

Im new to the forum, but plan on sticking around.
I find myself spending a lot of time reading through for sale threads, only to get to the end to learn the item has been sold. Sometimes, you can hover over and the pop-up says it, and sometimes it doesnt.

Is there a way to clean it out? Perhaps allowing the original poster to delete it after their item is sold?

Just a thought.

Thanks

With the threads deleted, how would you determine a fair asking price for the part you want to sell?

It has been the OPs responsibility to update the thread indicating the part has been sold. Although I don't want to see these threads deleted, I would like to see an option to edit the thread title to include the word "SOLD".

These threads do not get deleted. The site does this for us to keep a record of the sale, and for your reason too. We can not delete them either.

I understand the "record keeping" part. That makes sense.

Anything to help the readers know before going in and spending 5 minutes per thread to find out the item is sold would be useful. Perhaps allowing the OP to move the thread to a "sold items" category would be helpful.

Just my $.02
