People will be upset.
Also, it depends if you said the $100 price tag included shipping.
I did this on B&S and I got ragged on by people who
essentially don't read carefully. Btw, I raised the price $10
from $175 to $185 for shipping and people threw a fit.
Tread carefully friend.

You are allowed to edit and raise prices.

But, this generally works only for pink cashmere ties.

It's not, especially if it's an interest check.
You are not allowed to bump with out a price drop.
You are welcome to sell for any price that you deem fit,
as buyers are welcome to NOT buy from you if they dislike
your price.

I didn't make any comment about 3 threads. I'm saying, you should read the rules before you have 3 sales threads. Just read the rules. If it doesn't say no, how can it be against the rules? Nothing here is complicated. There is a set of rules that says what you can't do. It's only against the rules, if you do something that they say you can't do.

Yes i know that they can choose to not buy, but once i post a price (in an IC thread), can i change it? Also rebel222 should read the rules because apparently he missed the part where it says you can have multiple threads open if you have a lot of items

Completely agree.
Like I've said it's NOT against the rules.
Just a word of advice though, IMHO $25 is not worth it.
As anyone who may have been interested may just
not buy out of spite. Is $25 really worth the trouble?
