Hi,
whilst it is ideal for ads to be descriptive, there is nothing wrong in asking details or clarification on something you don't understand or is not clear.
people usually write descriptions as they perceive it. so its hard to enforce guidelines on descriptions and acronyms.
my point is the seller should be free to write as little or much details as they see fit, after all that would directly impact their sale, so its in their interest to be descriptive, at the same time if something looks interesting but is unclear its simple enough to ask, there are people with varied levels of expertise here and a lot are beginners, so no one will judge your questions.
As for others soliciting sales, people here are quite honest and you can easily make out from a comment on whether its true or not, and if it is an expensive item, you could draw conclusions from pics or see it for yourself or PM the seller or contact them directly to get more details, that way it is unbiased.
this is a great forum and place to sell items and I've bought and sold a few things, never had any bad experiences. Not to say there can't be, but its unlikely.
again, its impossible for the moderators here or in any forum to enforce how a seller should write. just ask for clarification, others will add comments to help you understand but are highly unlikely to bias a sale. stick to the sellers descriptions or comments and form your own opinion.
by saying another persons comment is always suspicious is a bit offensive to those who've sincerely commented with the intention of sharing their experiences or just felt like saying something.
