[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 1663333, member: 561023"] Absolutely. The same as I will skip a listing on eBay if the picture(s) contained in the listing is(are) a stock inventory pic 'borrowed' from some website that sells that particular piece of equipment I don't want to browse the Classifieds here if an item is selling and I cannot see some photographic evidence that the seller does, in fact, both own and possess the item(s) said person is trying to sell. Case in point: the things that were brought to light by whoever has the username [I]robertf1988[/I] (eBay username [I]marleyman1988[/I]) could have been prevented in the beginning with just such a requirement. I'm sure with not too much digging other bright, shining examples could be found as well. I can agree with this as well. Abusing this particular ability could only potentially hurt the seller, realistically. If it's someone thread dumping let us get rid of the offending post immediately. If it's a genuine potential buyer, as a seller I cannot think of anyone who would treat a buyer badly (within the For Sale thread) if it will make you some coin. No, but jntar did and when we're discussing something that could have a forum-wide effect if implemented I'd rather [I]someone[/I] with some sort of real "power" or "influence" over the way this board is run allowed for us to give our opinions on it than I would if no one did which has been what we, as users, have been offered before. My $0.02 so [/rant] [/QUOTE]
