I think it is ok to educate potential buyers. I don't think it hurts potential sellers. I educated myself by watching Cobra Country, reading the posts on this site, and attending the London, Ohio show (staring in 2004) , driving an SPF, for a couple of years before my purchase and then waited to find what I was searching for. If you do lots of reading, you can be an educated buyer.
Your post raises a good point in that does it hurt sellers? I think not. Some sellers undervalue their vehicle and some over value. One thing is for sure, they cost much more to build then to buy completed. Buyers should keep that in mind. Its amazing to me how much the costs have been driven upward by all of the components. I could not build mine today for less than $90k. If I had more cash I would have bought more vehicles here that have come up for sale as some are priced well.
