Baaisikilist Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 For me the actual worst is when people use generic photos for their adverts.For example, they are selling a Scott Foil and they take the image of the bike of the Scott website and use that. I would rather they have no image, because I can be certain the bike isn't the one in the photo. PS. Not much of this happens on the hub, but its all over gumtree. And when they copy/paste the description of the bike from the website... FML...!
Spoke101 Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 Yip! Those have a tendacy to irritate me; but this RESPONSE to ads even more: "If only it was a large"....(seriously?? What if it was,..would you buy it, immediately?)In some cases "yes" if the item was as advertised. In others it would make me think long and hard, and do some serious number crunching.
popcorn_skollie Posted January 21, 2015 Posted January 21, 2015 Price? To be arranged... http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6guSTq7TTuA/UGM4DSN4OGI/AAAAAAAADPM/adbTaCM1oW8/s320/lil-wayne-money.gif
Guest DieBees Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 coz the iPad takes decent quality pics ,then they become to large to download. You have to place ad then edit and add more photos then it lets you place decent quality pics. Edit spellingEven my phone pics are too large. And I have a 3310. Its not apple...
Lurch the stalker Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Price? To be arranged...That just tells me they're saying, "I have no idea what this should sell for" or, "I hope you don't know how little this should go for and offer way more".I've often been tempted to start the bidding at 1 cent even though I don't want the item...
Starvin' Marvin Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 There this a oke selling a Force group set, no pics, I couldn't be bothered to mail and ask for pics.
Guest DieBees Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 Why are apple owners so sensitive? Is it because Steve Jobs died? My apple is so cool... my iphone can iron clothes, my ipad can fit in a tog bag my ipod can draw chicks. Guys. We like you, no matter what device you have. Pffft.

Pffft.Makes me think of that joke..I got a new iPhone, got my son a new iPad, my daughter a new iPod...and my wife a new iRon.... Personally, I do like my Apple devices, and I was not a fan until I had a bad experience with Samsung phones (though nothing beats Samsung TV's).Though having said that, it is like anything in life, other people have had the reverse. At the end of the day, whether we choose iOS, Android, Windows RT/Phone/Mobile we're all using the device at a fraction of its abilities.

Bub Marley Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 I hate it when people post an ad and then don't bother responding to comments on the ad.

SAGecko Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 My 103 year old grandfather cycles every morning (granted it is a stationary bike,will post pictures when we sell it on the hub) That's COLD Dude....
Jigghead Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 OK, I was guilty of this with my Forerunner 910XT, at least I added a downloaded pic off the web until I had a chance to take pics of the actual unit (which is still listed FYI ) and the ad has been edited accordingly.
