You know those niggles in websites you use a lot, that make you wonder whether anyone actually tested them before putting them up? In most eBay listings for non-new items, near the top is a shortened version of the free text that qualifies the Condition, e.g. Condition: Very Good“Very clean, only used a couple of times, still with the original box and instructions, but” … Read more And when you click on the “Read more” link, you get taken to the same text further down in the Item specifics, still shortened, which you then have to click on again! No wonder some buyers don’t read full descriptions and then want to return an item because of something they should have found out before they ordered. If it says “Read more”, why can’t it do what it promises, by opening the full description to let you actually read more?
