One can not help but think what else is missing from the description. Caveat emptor.I would have prefaced your description with "Except for fading and cover wear" or included the mjaority of what you said above.And you said it yourself in your post; "All in good shape, clean and fresh smelling."Thank you for being civil and well-spoken. Ummm . . . I'm sure someone will manage to not return the favor, but you shouldn't take any offense at that.

Anyway enough. Theres no pleasing some people....like the one who left me neg feedback....I just have to assume that no matter what I did they wouldn't be happy. Thats why I put in big letters at the bottom of all my listings. PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS WHATSOEVER.
I have not been selling on eBay for very long, but I learned that the larger the pictures and the more views you can display of an item is better for the buyer, plus it cuts down on the number of questions.
