Do you want photos on all posts in the for sale section?

[Peakey]

I’m putting a poll up for 1 moth from today and the majority will win. Should the rule for photos on all adverts in the kits section be extended to the other sections? So ALL adverts in the for sale sections should have photos of he actually item for sale at the time of posting.

Although I have found the attachment upload system to be a bit of a ball-ache, that's usually because I've been trying to upload images that were >400kb.

I think photos are a must. I'd go as far as to suggest that they should also feature a handwritten dated note to re-assure buyers that the thing they're potentially paying for actually does exist.

if a post has links to photos (ie facebook) I don't see this as being a bad thing

you have even more info on the seller then like his own facebook account etc

Facebook is blocked on the pc I use in work for viewing oople so none of the photos show up anyway.
Also a lot of photo hosting sites are blocked.
The only forsale pages I get to see photos on are the ones directly uploaded to the forum database.
I for one won't buy anything without seeing photos first

Totally agree with photos on all (for sale).

If you have the item for sale there should be no issue with a photo. It should be posted with a photo.

Its shows the item for sale so the buyer can see what they are buying, item condition and most of all, the seller has it for sale with less chance of any issues.....

Snap!! As in, "me too" not snap as in "photo" although by saying snap, I do want photos. You know what I mean!!

Better with photos showing details of any damage you too often see ppl writing things like ‘only ran for two 5 minute races’ or ‘in excellent condition’ when in fact whatever is being sold more often has damage that is highly underestimated.
Not saying ppl are telling pork pies just different ppl have different opinions and deserve to see what they are potentially buying.

This has never worked for me so I just use other hosting companies

Facebook is fine as long as anyone can access the pictures without having a Facebook account
