Sorry. Trade Values are not permiited to be listed. Please see the rules for the exchange.
 
So a number of trade posts have trade values listed. What was it about this post that bothered you?
Your thread got reported. The others did not.

There are only 4 active super mods. We are volunteers, and there is only so much spare time in our personal schedules that we can donate. As a result, not every thread is examined for rules violations. So some threads that violate the rules escape. But if we do see a violation, such as when a thread is reported, we address it.

Why is this a rule? It makes zero sense to not have a trade value listed. Now I have people messaging me asking me what the trade value is when it could be just posted in the listing. Why in the world would Bladeforums choose to make it a rule not to post trade values? Literally every other group or forum requires a trade value on trade posts.
 
The rule was put in place due to prior abuse. People were using the trade section and trade values as a way to sell without the proper membership.

Thank you for the explanation and I appreciate all the volunteer work you and the other mods due.

Cheers, Jonathan
