    woods; All the basics look to be covered. The line in the first one, about feedbacks, might be a little hard to understand. (users with feedback and no bad feedback for payment). You fixed that in the second auction. The pictures are pretty big files (126,835 & 128,343 bytes) and it takes a while to load. I keep mine below 50,000 bytes, most of the time around 25.000. Otherwise it looks great.

    If I knew then, what I know now.

    Woods,
    They look nice, but you are (maybe, I don't sell gun stuff) missing a HUGE opportunity by not shipping Internationally.

    I STILL can't figure out why people won't ship Internationally. It isn't that much more trouble, and people overseas have DEEEEEEEEEP pockets. You can look up the postage online, if you are close on the weight of the product.

    I ship 1k+ items most weeks, and make HUGE money off the furriners. :) (God Bless'em!!!)

    Something to think about.

    NO! You may not have my guns! Now go crawl back into your hole!

    The auctions look fine except for the confusing bit in the first one that you corrected in the second, as previously commented.

    I read somewhere that GB goes through the auctions periodically (maybe once a day at 5 AM or something) and automatically compresses the pictures if the are over a certain file size.

    Thanks for the feedback guys.

    I knew something wasn't kosher with how I phrased that. That's the problem when you work nights and try to do things when you get home tired. It's fixed now.

    Mercury, I said no international because I don't want to learn every little legality of those goofy countries that don't trust thier citizens.

    SxS, You'll just have to search for my auctions. My biggest thing is black powder cartridge guns. The fiance and I spent last weekend looking at houses, you never know what I might sell. I already have a house, but we want one we can call "our" own.
