<p>[QUOTE="tommyc03, post: 2946387, member: 17665"]Etsy, Listia and Webstore all have more than their fair share of total amateurs, with poor photos, erroneous info and all sorts of people who can't even spell correctly. They are not monitored correctly by any standard and Listia does not even follow it's own posted rules a lot of the time. And wasn't Etsy originally intended to be a crafts store? Best to stay away from these types of mixed up sites and not be conned. I recently had to correct someone about their posting of a coin from the Crusades time period. They had it in the 16th century. I corrected them maturely and they posted back gratefully. But not knowing your history can lead to some very misleading when buying something. The people who own these sites should have mods with more info so these types of listings get removed more quickly. Wishful thinking I suppose. Caveat Emptor.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
