Anyways, I am not sure what kind of details I would have provided? It's not like I was selling a car. It's just a Wicked Lasers Arctic laser. What else can I say besides "new condition" ? It's not like it's got custom seats, an exhaust and 35,000 miles and a maintnence history, heh. All pertinent descriptive information can be obtained from Wicked.
Oh, let me suggest you guys use a reference service like Heatware. This reduces the need for things like pics with user names, etc as authenticity can be guaranteed by the sellers reputation. The reasoning for this is simple. It's already hardly worth the time and effort to sell $100 items on a forum, adding the work of unnecessary pics will just reduce the volume of the economy here. The use of something like Heatware can serve to improve the quantity and quality of exchanges.
Pics are obviously useful when needed to show the specific condition of an item, but when it's mint it's mint, especially for something simple like a laser.
All this whining 'cause I don't have a camera. :cryyy:
BTW, it's sold now (for $340) so this thread can be closed. I can't believe I actually made a small profit on the thing. I remember paying like $230 a long while back.
