I see listings with no description all the time.  Of course, this guy also has the generic, only-mostly accurate description.  I've seen that one many times as well, however both together paint a pretty poor picture, for sure.

Are you kidding?

I have seen "old IBM keyboard" with no further discussion AND no picture.

When I asked a question, they said that it said "Model M" on the back, and posted the question to the listing. Obviously somebody else saw the question and answer, and topped my bid of $5-10 and won it at that price.

A photo of the front would have at least doubled the bid, and a photo of the back might well have tripled it.

"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."
