LOL, sparkz.
Sanmar, I truly believe that many buyers just look at the pictures and then ask a question. Much too busy to read. If they can.

The part that gets me is that they make the effort to email a question. I read and write every day, and I KNOW that writing takes more effort. I would expect that it is the same level of relative effort for most people. So, I can't blame laziness.
OTOH, perhaps it's not a contest between reading and writing. Perhaps it is easier to write like sh!t than to read for content.

I get multiple questions like this every week. I have come up with one simple answer for all of them, "Please read item description in auction listing." and leave it at that. If they need additional information on the item, that's fine. I'll spend all day researching the product if I have to to get them a answer but if it's already in the description they will just have to look at my EXTRA LARGE type in the auction listing and read it for themselves.
