[QUOTE="susanlynn9, post: 33353, member: 1258"]Unfortunately, this type of thing will continue as long as there are buyers who want to throw their money away without learning anything about what they're spending it on. Everyone here knows my feeling about a seller's culpability and responsibility for their listed items. If a seller doesn't know about an item, they have a responsiblility to learn about it or at least do enough research so that they can identify what they are selling. If they are not going to do this, they need to offer an unconditional guarantee including refunding s/h. No discussion. That is the price they should pay for not doing their homework. However, the buyer has a responsibility also. As a buyer, I don't trust the seller to do all of my research for me. If I choose not to research something before I bid on it and I get burned, then that was my own fault and all the whining in the world will not make it someone else's. Regardless of which end you are on, there is responsibility involved. It's never a good idea to take the lazy way out. Someone is going to lose and usually it's you.
