<p>[QUOTE=&quot;treylxapi47, post: 1721273, member: 41863&quot;]I didnt really choose to use a misleading title. If you look at the description i was posting using my phone and I am rather new at this. Ive sold maybe 10 items on ebay over the last 3-5 years, and am mostly a buyer. I agree that it could be misconstrued as a misleading title, but there is a very good reason why you have a description box as well. Its precisely so that ALL of the details can be laid out for the buyer, the things you missed and werent able to include in the title itself. </p><p><br /></p><p>Im not arguing that my title couldve used some work. I actually made 2 similar lots both containing the same quantity of coins and both mixed with 40% and 90%. Here were the 2 titles:</p><p><br /></p><p>[h=1]Silver Kennedy Half Dollars 90% Junk Silver[/h]</p><p><br /></p><p>[h=1]Silver Kennedy Half Dollars 90% 40% Junk Silver[/h]</p><p><span style="color: #333333"><font face="Arial"><br /></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><font face="Arial"><br /></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><font face="Arial"><br /></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><font face="Arial"><br /></font></span></p><p>[h=1][/h]</p><p>So obviously somewhere within just a few minutes of posting both of those very similar listings I did one of two things. I either wrote the first description and thought I could improve upon it on the second lot by tweaking the title for more exposure and adding 40%, or when I was typing the title only mentioning 90%, i may have forgot to add the 40%. I cant remember the sequence of events, but I can tell you that there was no ill intent behind it either way. I am also firmly standing behind my philosophy that as a buyer its THEIR responsibility to check ALL the details of the auction, and yes that even means reading the fine print that says they may have switched your coins, selling you clad bars for silver bars, or whatever dubious sellers do these days. I know ive been burnt and didnt read all of the auctions sometimes, still do it occasionally (glutton for punishment), maybe missed a small key detail, but ive always been honorable and paid for the lesson that i just learned.</p><p><br /></p><p>I dont know, we shall see what happens, its not gonna make me or break me though[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
