Sellers ad, sellers choice, it's just that simple. If a seller doesn't post pictures, he hurts nobody, other than himself.

Pretty much sums it up… no different than pissing on someone’s thread. If you don’t like the item, content or the price, just move along.
Like the Bud Light debacle, understanding who is actually around you goes a long ways. You're on a classified gun board offending and talking down to half the participants. Some of which know twice as much about rifles than I'll ever learn, but they might not be able to post pictures.
Good way to put yourself on the do not do business with, either buying from, or selling to, list. If you don't like something there is a whole lot smarter ways of going about it, just saying.[/quote]

Alright you smarmy bustards with all the answers,, I don't need a thing, but I often buy something because the pic trips my trigger.
No pic ....no interest.

Pictures are a big help. With that being said I've bought things that I had to ask for Pictures and there's a few members I've done business with I'd still buy sight unseen. Not everyone has a decent smartphone or tablet or laptop or even decent cell coverage or wifi.

I like to see pics too, but an ad with a decent description of the item and an offer to text or email pics, certainly doesn't turn me off. To the OP. If you don't like it, move on! A lot of us have gotten along just fine for a lot of years without your demands. donsm70

Don’t like it? Then just leave. Not hard to ask for pics.

There is an art to selling...............
It takes a little effort.
No pics .....no interest. I just move on . I might have bought something .
It is like a gal with no " make-up"...............

OH! I have an idea.... Why don't you mandate that unless pictures are attached then the AD won't post?
oh, that's right...cause your nobody and what you think doesn't matter for fk.
Guess what?
I'd be more concerned with hacked users and scam posts that posted pictures. I like how you think. 👍

I use a PC for posting on the campfire. I take pictures using my apple phone. I have absolutely no idea how to get pictures from one to the other. Lots of phone crap, I am a babe in the woods about. miles
Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.

I lurked around this forum for years and years but only joined recently. In that short time, I haven’t seen anything not sell because of a lack of pics. Most sellers have some form of work around. The only thing I’ve seen not sell something is the asking price or something about the seller not passing the sniff test.
Everyone has their own criteria for whether or not they bite on something. Your criteria may not be mine….. and that’s just fine. Live long enough and you’ll get to experience some REAL life problems. I don’t sweat the small stuff.

I’m more put off by people who don’t put sizes in their thread titles. I’m pretty tired of opening links to discover the seller is the size of a dwarf.

The only way I can do pictures is that I have my grandson's girlfriend take the pics with her phone.
Then she sends the pics to my e-mail address so I can forward the pics.
I have had some that would post pics for me. I really appreciated that.
I can only e-mail pics. I don't have texting either.
I have dealt with a lot of people on this site, both buying and selling. Everyone I have dealt with has been decent, so far.
If you are someone that just has to have pics posted, I DON"T need you either.
I am a BOOMER.

If a potential buyer won't even pm for pics, they aren't too interested in buying in my opinion.
