I've finally decided the time has come to revamp the standard text in my listings. Some of the "need" for why it is worded the way it is now harkens back to the early days, for example when shipping costs weren't shown like it is today...and it clearly isn't necessary any more. Anyway below is a copy of the old text and the much shortened new draft text. I welcome any thoughts/suggestions anyone has regarding the new shortened version. I will consider them all!
If you want to see what a current listing if mine looks like, stick to items that end in 92c or 91c (the last digit represents the "generation" of the listing - I reuse the listings all the time (turbolister) and use the last number to identify which is the newest wording version....). .92c listings are all ebay hosted pictures, 91c listings are self hosted.
