Keep up the good work.

Further, anyone who does't like this idea and wants to attack me personally (classic ad hominem defense posture BTW - Bonus Points if you can name another logical flaw in this method of argument), please just contact me via PM so's not to disintigrate what's left of the integrity of this...

Mazuki; you're right. You decided to keep that information from all of your fellow head-fiers who might find it useful in the future. Great job!! But now, we will ALL know what your asking price was for your two month old Zhaolu 2.0 DAC : $170. Consider this my first entry.

You guys are all right so far. It would be a lot of work and be complicated. Look, it's just an idea I had. And, be honest, if you were looking to buy a pair of headphones, who wouldn't use this database to answer questions like: What's the average asking price over the last six months...

For all of you that are mature enough to realize the value of historical transaction data (that's anyone that's bought a house, car, etc.) I'm considering a process that records all the asking prices for individual FS items here so that when an item sells and someone ignorantly types "SOLD" over...
