marcstrains posted:I work full time and keep all my trains in a storage unit 20 mins from my house. I don't have the time to go to storage find the item, bring it home take photos, list it, on the whim someone is interested. When I list stuff for sale I describe it accurately and if someone is seriously interested then I will invest the time. Thank you
Well, none of that is the buyers problem. The easier it is for the buyer, the easier you make a sale.
I have bought and sold both on Ebay and internet forums for 15 years. Pictures are the first thing I want period. Now, if brand new never out of the box, I may adjust that take, but when I get it, it better really never be out of the box.
Next item is people wanting PayPal FF, where the buyer has no protection. I skip those too, which has been many on this forum.
Many sellers fail to realize it's a two way transaction, too many explanations of "I'm just......" used as excuses. It can't just be a good deal for the seller.
