Carl you are right... A person's Perception (right or wrong) is their reality and anything a sales venue can do to instill more confidence in the buyers decisions will only enhance the prices and completed sales.
I do not know where this is all going to end, but I beleive that some serious monetary penalties (full commissions both ways plus a penalty of a % of the hammer price) assesed against sellers would do alot to curb this crap.
I also believe that if someone is selling a car they are responsible for correctly representing it, or if they do not have the expertise, finding someone who can correctly represent it.

Can we all bow our heads in a moment of sympathy for PhilS. He called awhile ago just pissed because he had just spent about a half hour typing a post containing all he knew about the RS COPO but when he hit "post" it said something like "can't continue" He hit the back button and it all was gone. This is the second time . The first time was the other night when he tried to do it under "quick reply".......

Been there done that. I am wondering what Pete (the buyer)would do if he was the seller? What would he do to make this right?

Has happened to me a few times as well... I also learned to at least right click, drag, and copy the post before I hit the continue button.

And there you go...it only had to happen once to me before I started to do what Bud is suggesting as well.
