BUYERS, What Issues have you had with Sellers and Listings that Prevent you from Buying?

A good thorough description of the item for sale in both words and photos. In terms of photos you have to post a pic of the back of whatever you are selling. If you're selling speakers don't only take pictures with the grills on we need to see the drivers. If you're posting tubed gear list what tubes it takes don't make me have to google it. Pretty basic stuff to me but often ignored.

Do not recall but a guy with 2 or 3 negative or 2 or 3 neutral feedbacks i would NEVER buy from these dudes.You can if you want not me!!

Where else can you find items selling for 5 or 6 digit prices that have most of the item's photo obscured by a useless fuzzed up frame.   Just plain crazy. 

Still a valid point Mapman.
Casual visitors who do not know the "quick fix" are likely to be put off browsing very rapidly.
Audiogon REALLY should make the classic view the default not the absurd grid/peeping tom view!
Wonder how much revenue Audiogon have lost since inception?
Lost commission on sales not happening and lost listing fees as more sellers leg it to audiomart and eBay etc.
Food for thought

They should retain both views and not hinder their customers ability to sell by obscuring the thumbnail. That is very low end not high. All the competition even Craigslist shows thumbnail photos with no tampering. Makes the whole site look really bad.
