[IMPORTANT: How YOU respond to this polite request will tell us a lot. Sure, YOU can HIDE my comment & BLOCK ME as I'm not a moderator. But many Listians know about this message because I leave the exact same one on many auctions like yours. If they see a HIDDEN COMMENT from Angelscry2(me) on an auction with a ZERO/LOW FEEDBACK seller(you), they will know that you HID this request & what that means. Most legitimate sellers aren't offended by this request]
Welcome to Listia! I see that you are new and have made a very common mistake: Posting an item without a complete description and/or stock photo(s).
Polite Request: Post real picture of the item, next to a paper with your username? As a new Listia user this is helpful to let us (your potential bidders) know that you are legit and in fact do have the item in your possession. If you haven't fully described your item, please do so by selecting UPDATE at top of page.
If you choose to ignore request, 1) you will definitely get less bids, 2) your auction will be flagged by other Listians & may be deleted by Listia Moderator. If you do have this item please take this important steps mentioned.
In the meantime I have FLAGGED this auction which summoned a moderator. I encourage others to FLAG this. Of course if/when you post picture(s) that Iv'e requested, I'll gladly remove the FLAG.
NOTE: This isn't meant as an insult or accusation. It's simply a request. I am aware that this may SEEM like a rude message. Listia is now revoking credits from those whom continue to list fraudulent auctions. Please understand that it is NOT intended to be rude in any way shape or form & legitimate sellers often appreciate these tips
Good luck!
PS A tip to fellow Listians ... I bid on some auctions that appear to be "fake" so that, once the auction is deleted and I know it will, I get a message "An auction that you bid on has been removed"
In order to have better results with your auction, please add more details regarding your item. Information such as make, model number, condition, any known issues and any other specific details particular to your item will go a long way in instilling confidence in potential bidders. This will also reduce the number of questions that your bidders will have to ask. For an even more productive auction experience (more bids, possibly higher credits received), we also recommend that you post a clear, close-up picture of your item with it powered on (showing current date clearly if it has that capability), as well as with it powered off. A picture of the back side too will help you, all with the same background. Also, it’s HIGHLY recommended that you write your Listia username on a piece of paper and have it next to your item when you take a picture of it. It adds bidder confidence that you in fact have this item in your possession.
While this isn't a requirement, this is requested so that sellers get higher bids from more bidders, and for the protection of our users who might be interested in bidding on your item. It'll also prevent your auction from getting flagged by users. We don't want your auction to get deleted for seeming like it's not real. Thanks for your cooperation and good luck with your auction!
