Jodi BirkholmIt's not a question of inability or laziness, nor is it b.s. I do agree that scans are required and imperative when selling on eBay. In email sales and on the B/S/T (and even on my own website), I rarely post scans. I will send them to serious customers, however, in a private email. I do, however, agree wtih your feelings on "make an offer".
Edited to add: Perhaps my feelings on this subject are more restricted to the autograph side of the hobby, especially the type of material I sell. Other dealers who sell similar material could appear to be on the same page as me when you compare their non-eBay selling methods. Not everyone, but most.
Edited again to say to Bob that I actually see what you're saying when the item in question is a card or other unsigned memorabilia. In that case, you have a point.
