Auctioneering Profession: Motion.

 

The motion also calls for a requirement that all properties should have a published guide price. I am astonished that, not just in terms of houses but also the pages of used car advertisements, one does not have to put a price on a second-hand car. I am at a loss to know why, in a consumer-focused market economy, one cannot know in advance the demanded price for something so that one can be in a position to bargain. Why that information can be withheld is beyond me.
