If that was the case, shouldn't eBay be addressing that? I did talk to a CSR who did say that ebay is trying to make things "easier" for the buyer as they recognize, generally they want everything in front of them and less to read. Extremely lazy was used in the conversation by both of us. Hence some listings descriptions: "looks great" period.
Maybe great images ( which become ebays) and more of the day spent fielding emails for further info. I'm at a bit of a lose on this apparent turn of events. Back to figure it out and soldier on.
