Several issues with deleting. If we let you delete, then the thread is gone on a whim. If there is a complaint by buyer or seller, I have no reference to go back to.
It's also good to know market value of items. Most things for sale have been sold before, so it's nice to see what people were asking or paying for things. Saves you under pricing your item, or over pricing and getting flamed for it. It's also nice to see how often things come up. Corals for sale often have pics, you can compare something for sale today against something last year to see if it's the same, or priced properly, etc.
Lots of reasons to keep, and it's simple enough to mark sold. or search with dates, most things are sold fairly quickly, although I sold an item that I had listed 7 months earlier. I've bought things that were posted 9 months earlier and the seller had given up bumping. If they had just deleted it, he wouldn't have sold it, and I wouldn't have got the deal.
