Please learn simple HTML for your listings! Please learn to paragraph or at least line break when listeing the book titles.
I usually buy books in lots. I was just browsing the listings and have hit the back button numerous times due to too many sellers having one long run on description with no line breaks.
Sheesh!
One person has a lot of over 100 books that I am interested in but they typed the description in all caps as one sentence. They numbered the books but it's just impossible to read.
I have seen at least a dozen listings done this way today. Wow. Don't the sellers see how hard it is to read when they preview the auction? Ugh.

I agree it is almost impossible to read these auction ads...But I would rather sift through those ads than to come across the HUGE ads...the ones that fill your entire screen with 2" high lettering (usually shocking blue) and flashing lights...too much html is also a bad thing.

I know some sellers who do very well and still don't use HTML. Frankly I don't understand it. Listings do need some polish, but some folks are just not computer savvy.
