Lack of images brings on tidal mood

I find it incredibly annoying when opening a new 'For Sale' thread only to find no images or a link to that free website that only seems to allow postage stamp sized images, which can only be viewed in pixelated detail by a magnifying glass. :twisted:

Am I the only one who feels this way, or is my rapidly approaching 40th year controlling my temper in much the same way that the tide is controlled by the moon?

I need to go out for a ride! :cool:
 
No pics in for sale ads is ridiculous.

Especially when accompanied with a demand to email me for pics..

It's a buyers market, wares should be presented to the best of the sellers ability/resources.
 
My for sale pet hate is when you see something like Yeti in the title and find its a pair of grips :twisted:
 
We could move this to an ebay gripe too.

When looking up 'Kona' for example, I may find a Giant that's labelled as "Giant xxx, not Kona, GT or Yeti", and several additional similar adverts all padding out my search results!

Double grrrrrr.
 
That's a well known (and annoying) tactic used to trawl in additional 'hits' for your item. Not this and not that etc. I've traded on ebay for about 18 months now and have never done it !
Good pictures and honest descriptions have gone some way to getting me my 100% feedback, Power Seller & Top Rated ranking. I always assume that crap pics are a way of hiding something or the seller couldn't give a toss !
