My Top Ten List of Things That Drive Me Nuts About Online Auction Sites
10. People who don't list clothing/shoe sizes in the subject line. A small thing, I know, but it's a pain to click every third link to find that the item is not my size.

9. People who don't list clothing/shoe sizes at all. :wtf:

8. Multiple listings of the same item, taking up several pages (I see this on sites advertising horses primarily).

7. Poor spelling and grammar. :P

6. Inappropriate use of tags so that items that have no relation to the type of listing you're searching for show up.

5. Lack of photos for items that really need to be seen to bid on.

4. Listings that show one price in the subject line and a completely different one in the body of the message.

3. Used items advertised as new.

2. Items listed as a brand name that they are not.

1. Sellers who do not respond to multiple attempts to reach them in order to view their merchandise (horses once again - two this week. Ads are still up so I'm assuming they are still available).


Got a top ten list you'd like to share? :hi:
