Howdy das - Welcome to the Forum !! I'm moving this post over to the World & Ancients area - more likely you'll find an answer there ;)
This is something I'm never gonna understand - why are people concerned with a buyer's fee ? :confused: Every single house there is the world...
Josh & Ben are very good about listing accurate descriptions - including cleaning ;)
I suppose you could make a case for 4 - I can't see 5 though.
Strictly my opinion, but I still think this will cause problems. I would venture a guess that close to 50% (perhaps more) of those who submit...
