Why I have the feeling that you benefitted from others honest mistake?
You have a lot of similar "voices" telling you facts and other useful stuff. Last time it was my "transfers", which you did not bother to check etc. I can't benfit from someones honest mistake, because the TL is open to everyone. That means everyone can bid. It's not like if the price is set low, only one person can bid. Everyone can bid. If he sells "low", it's his current value.
You forgot to add... and damn the NBA and NBPA that changes their offers for the last couple of months.
And after it's signed, can't be changed for atleast 6 years. Prolly you did not know that:) There are a lot of things you don't seem to understand or know.
Especially that one found his mistake in time, before anyone bidded the player.
What's the mistake you can not correct while selling a player? You set the price too low? You can raise it yourself (you just choose not to, because you fail to know players actual value and might end up loosing money), or if the player is good it get's raised anyway. If you set the price too high, you can change it after 3 days. It's simple.
And again, why do you support [and for GM-Perepete i'll add, "or are you against it?"] updating a lineup after it is already been set?
How is it so hard for you to understand that these are completely different things. One concernes only your team, the other (listing a player) is influencing everyone on BB. It's only logical to have access to lineup change (recent additions to team, opponent, injuries).
Perhaps your kind of example would be good. You are the owner of McDonalds. Every time you see a long line you raise the prices.

The key point - AFTER the contract had been SIGNED between the TWO sides.

And again you assist me [although you probably didn't know...]. Thanks!

It is not the same as if you will not get a bid, you will lose money.
So, by definition it is not the same as updating the price.

Great example!!! Everytime you see your price can be updated, you update it (unless he already gave you money, or set a bid).
And again you are doing a great work.
Just not one that you are not THINKING of.

This was written to educate you on a matter that you obviously lacked knowledge on. As contract signing is a bit different then BB TL. There are no rollbacks or backing out of a deal in BB. That's how it should be or else it would be chaos. The bidding system is only upwords (unlike NBA contracts or new CBA). There are no options to "I bid 300k, the other guy bids "200k+friendly smile" (after the first 300k bid) and get's the player.

Therefore you should set the price with what you are ok with (if the player sells at starting price) at the time you list him. Yes it is that simple.

So you have McDonalds in Israel that change prices every minute depending on the line currently at the counter:D It's hilarious how you can't understand the simplest things in life. Atleast you win the title of "user with the most suggestion threads closed by GM" by a large margin. Keep up the "good" suggestions!

I'm not sure if you are trying to change reality or something, but the suggestion discuss an update BEFORE any bid had been made.
And by that your "argument' had been void again.

I guess it wasn't simple enough...
You said it is the same, and you had been proven wrong.

So now you are changing your own story. Interesting...
And again, the lake is empty, so you need to find other ways to build your "story"

And I do not care whether a thread is closed or not by a GM. They are not the one who decides here.
