If you don't want to buy something that a pic isn't shown for, that's your prerogative. Don't want to pay what their asking? Fine, don't. And if you don't like how an add is worded, formatted, shipped etc? MOVE ON!
You be you, and let the other person be them. Geeze, 4 pages of this?????

I agreee with your argument, in general. People can post whatever they want and people are free to read it, or not.

But we're talking about selling here. We're talking about benefitting financially from the network effect this site offers. This site, like many others, can concoct its own rules when it comes to members banefitting financially from it. Or not...

Personally, I feel I have wasted a few seconds I'll never get back every time someone posts a for sale thread with no picture. I don't like seeing pictures on a puny phone screen, so I don't even bother with texted pics.

Just my $0.02...
