What frustrates you the most about seller’s for sale ads?


Audiogon has been in existence for over 20 years now, and if you are like myself, you probably have read thousands of for sale ads. When I read most of these ads, I always feel like the seller is leaving out vital information about the actual product (unit they own) they’re trying to sell. Some sellers are spot on when they sell something. They describe the unit in full detail, but most don’t. To me that’s a red flag and frustrating. For myself, the most frustrating thing is most ads leave out equipment age. If I’m buying something used this is vital info I want to know. If a seller doesn’t know the age of the unit don’t rate it 9/10 and later telI me I don’t know the actual age. One retailer, I will not mention names, always gives you 3-4 paragraphs of how great of business they are, and leaves one sentence at the end to describe the actual product being sold. LOL

Frustrates scammers:)
What amazes me is people trying to sell high dollar items, they won’t even bother to dust or show a clear picture.. How hard is it to wipe down a component for a clear picture ? I also want to see the serial number, many don’t show. Also the age of the component! One person was selling some speakers, they didn’t show the one speakers front baffle, if you looked closely, you could see a crack between the drivers in the wood, only the other speaker baffle was clearly shown that wasn’t cracked.. 
imagine receiving these speakers only to have one cracked because they weren’t honest with their presentation.. 
Most sellers I have dealt with are pretty honest.. most..
Dealers that use this site to sell products at retail price, or "call for pricing". Dealers that state, "WE TAKE TRADES!", then when I offer an item that is only a few months old and in mint condition, they reply, "Sorry we won't take that." 
If an ad does not contain the info that’s important to me, I simply send a question to the seller.
