I found an old car stereo amplifier that is from the late 1980's, early 90's awhile back. It is in near pristine condition, which is an incredible feat considering it would have been likely used by a younger person in a car.
So, I have it listed. The description states I have a copy of the manual. The listing has Make An Offer set. The listing clearly depicts the overall condition of the item. Photos shows that the exterior color is blue and the motherboard is the US flag. Photo clearly shows "Made in USA". Description gives all specifications including wattage, channels, etc.
I've received numerous questions from interested buyers:
- Will You Take Offers?
- Does it have the manual?
- Does it have the US flag on the motherboard?
- What is the condition of it?
- How many watts is it?
- Is it made in the USA?
I'm about to pull my hair out on this. I've actually considered just removing it from eBay and using it myself. I just can't bear the idea of an idiot buying it.

I assume you ignore these dumb Q's. And you are right they don't deserve to own such a nice piece of equipment.

I'm sure they're dumb, and you're tired of answering such questions. However. . . . if it were my item, I'd answer the questions. Never know who's going to buy the item, right? And these folks were interested enough to click on it.

At first I answered a few, but then the low ball offers came rolling in. I may try selling it locally on Craigslist.
I get the sense it is mostly younger (under 25) people inquiring about it, which also leads me to believe that they may also destroy it and attempt to return it.

If they are viewing your item on a smart phone or tablet,they may not scroll down to see all the details,hence ask questions.

Yes, I have found the same. Actually, I have had many instances where someone is busy asking a ton of questions and then someone else swoops in and buys it... saving me the headache. lol.

I can blow off steam here, in real time I like the old saying that there are no dumb questions and usually attempt to answer them. I don't recall any one who asked a Q actually bidding, but the answers are posted for others who may!
25 Barbie doll Q's whew I hope some were yes or no.
