    Price On Request. Usually, it's just POR. :#
    Usually, they're too embarrassed to publish their ask price.

    ‘It’s still available’

    And

    ‘Your offer accepted’

    Or conversely…

    ‘Out of stock’

    And

    ‘Check back later’

    Sometimes, it’s better to be LUCKY than good. 🍀 🍺👍
