As a buyer what puts you off a listing?

thatsfabulous

For me its:

Unclear/ dark pictures

Shill bidding- I recently really liked a dress and bid on it, sold to someone else 2nd bidder then 5mins after auction ended seller relised it. Although i liked it knowing they were shill bidding i didnt bid again.

Lack of information on the page- 'blue dress' And then if you email for more information you dont even get it. The other day i got ' sorry dress doesnt come with the chest measurement'

Listing as other brand- 'Black Topshop dress' Then you read listing and its River island or somthing. Its misleading to a buyer and annoying they lied.

I get put off by spelling mistakes and text talk Not the odd mis-type that we're all prone to making, but really bad spelling or text/sms language. It just makes me think that if there's a problem then I'd have to deal with a retard.

It was Alton Towers Tickets, with a reserve, seller saying the reserve is £30, bid that and they are yours (but no Buy it now option), Ebay won't allow me to put £30. But the icing on the cake was the huge type stating 'I WILL NOT TAKE PAYPAL

What a waste of an auction.

What bugs me is the word 'Designer' in the title, only for the items of clothing to be from Next or George.

I like to see a photo of the actual item. I also wish sellers would include the inside leg measurements on trousers. I am interested in a pair of trousers the now but there is no measurements and the seller hasn't answered my pm after 2 days. That definately puts me off.
