Re: [Phono-L] Fw: Phono-L Digest, Vol 10, Issue 267
I have to admit I can rarely resist writing these people. I always approach it from the standpoint of sharing knowledge. If they have something that is a piece of junk and they are representing it as something else, I tell them I'm not sure who told you it was a but that was inaccurate. I hope you didn't have to pay too much for it. Thankfully, the vast majority o people I have contacted have thanked me for my input, and many have changed their auctions to mroe accurately represent the item. First I check their other items, and if they are not phonograph related items, I figure they just don't know what they have. Although one time the guy I gently corrected got all mad and told me if I didn't butt out he would contact eBay and report me. Which indicated to me that he was angry that someone knew what he was selling was fraudulent. My aim is not to shame the seller, but to protect any potential buyers that haven't got the knowledge to know they may be bidding on something fraudulent or damaged or that is not original..

Re: [Phono-L] Fw: Phono-L Digest, Vol 10, Issue 267
An issue I'm curious about in these circumstances is how many good intentioned people contact a seller to inform them of a potential error etc. and whether that may impact a specific reply. Many years ago I created a listing for something not phonograph related and to be honest not 100% knowledgeable about and was promptly informed by 37 people of what I believed at the time was a non critical error. My point is that I got the point around number 2. The next 35 were a bit pile on. Just a side story when considering approaching a seller. Merry Christmas to all!
