It was sugested on another thread that I "should have asked the sellerbeing blind-sided by a seller's insistence that I go to a web-based auction management site and hand over personal info, and their asking for $extra to cover PayPal fees.
OK ... I am creating a "universal buyer question" form letter to send to the sellers of all auctions I am interested in.
1. Do you ship in used pizza boxes?
2. Do you have any undisclosed costs that will only appear in your email?
3. Will I be expected to do your data entry for you into a web-based auction management site with dubious privacy policies?
Yadda, yadda .........
187. Do you use strong-scented packing materials in an attempt to cover up unpleasant odors in your products?

In referenece to question. #1 (Do you ship in used pizza boxes?), you have to ask them exactly how much of the pizza will they remove before shipping.

Does "mint condition" mean that the watch actually WORKS????

Are you now or have you ever been a communist?
sorry, couldn't resist.
Do you, if fact, have any idea how to pack my item for shipping so it at least has a fighting chance of reaching me undamaged?
Are you actually going to buy the insurance you required me to pay for or are you just going to pocket the money?
