I don't run or reply to WTB ads, because of that exactly.
Years ago I started a thread about WTB ads.
The title was something along lines of "Do WTB ads really mean want to steal?"
And much like similar threads on price gouging and the current market, it was controversial to say the least.
You're saying if somebody says they WTB something that means they want to "steal" it from somebody?
Or if somebody answers a WTB ad that means they're a price "gouger"?
That's totally absurd.
