Pricing is always "Whatever someone is willing to pay"

It's never the same, so having a page that defines a price is admittedly a little silly.

However, it can be useful to get a general idea of how much things are worth in relation to each other. It is true that such pages can be easily manipulated by those looking to exploit the page for profit, but this is a community page and it can be moderated by the knowledgeable members of that particular section of this community. It's not likely to ever be truly accurate, but it does provide another option for people looking for pricing, aside from visiting worlds like HONORS.

I would say that perhaps the most useful aspect of these pages was the disclaimer that (used to)  explains the fluidity of prices, and to not trust any single source on the matter as they can easily be manipulated by single parties for profit. It was also convenient to direct members to such pages when they would repeatedly try adding pricing to specific item pages. Just as a "No, don't put that here, you can stick it over there if you want."

I don't know if such pages exist on other wikia sites. It seems reasonable to remove such information, as we already sternly remove it from item pages themselves. I am not sure if it is necessarily beneficial to remove it, though.
