+1, this.

When you do it this way a message is left for the staff telling us which post/thread needs modifying. We can find it quickly and update the title/close the thread. This helps save other members from viewing obsolete threads, and save you from getting PM's for items you've sold, traded or withdrawn.

I found at least 1/2 dozen threads this morning where the items were no longer available but the staff hadn't been notified to close the thread (a few had comments in the thread indicating the iems were no longer available, but I only knew that by viewing each of them).
