You're forgetting that not everyone reads these posts on google groups
via a web browser.
Many read these postings as email, just like a listserv. Deleting the
post is never noticed by these readers: they got their message already,
it's in their inbox, and deleting the message from the google group
doesn't send them anything and doesn't remove the message from their
inbox. On the other hand, sending a message that the item is sold lets
them know it's been sold.

Hey all,
I'm thinking it might be a good idea for authors of "For Sale" posts
to delete their posts once an item is sold, rather than creating
another post just to say "Sold".
Deleting the post would keep people from thinking something might
still be available, only to scroll to the bottom to find out it's
not. Also reduces the number of posts.
Some might not know how to delete their post. Easy ... just click on
the down arrow at the right-top of the post (More Message Options) and
click Delete.
