Ah but originally, the Gold member thing was to help Petrucci (Original owner of PF) pay for the servers. However this site was BOUGHT not so long ago by Internet Brands. And thats why we have the adverts. So why do you need to then charge the users £10 (down from £20) to use all the functions.

Particularly odd if you have only 1 thing to sell and its worth less than £10. Even eBay has a sliding scale.

Devils advocate, I suppose.
