To my mind, a price is just a piece of information. It is an expression of willingness to trade. When voluntary trade happens, I assume it is because both parties believe they will be better off as a result of the exchange. (They are not always right; people make mistakes, but I also believe that this is part of life, and trying to prevent people from making mistakes can cause more harm than good.)
