Nick's "How not to" tip of the day

Today's 'How not to' tip of the day has to do with the type of text you choose for the wording of your auction description. The link provided will show a classic case of what not to do. As soon as I see text like this I move on. Did the seller really look at that before he listed it and say "yep I nailed it, good job by me"

    Holy crap . . . I don't know what hurts more ?

    The electric blue color of the font ?

    Or the way all the words are right on top of each other .

    I think something like that could drive potential buyers away alone ,.

    Seems like a pretty nice set. Presentation is probably the reason that with less than 30 minutes left in the auction, he STILL has zero bids.

    Please lighten up on being a d*ck, It isn't always necessary. Believe me I have seen enough of your posts.
