Why is item description in most listings blank?

@7250sam 

 

Many of those individuals are not really "book people," and not only do not understand how important  the item description is to a buyer, but also those sellers do not have a CLUE about what information to include.

 

If a seller can't take the time to fill in the "item description" box, (or doesn't understand what is meant by the  term "item description") -- just pass 'em by -- they are NOT serious "book people."

Try using another browser as a test. If the description is blank in the test browser, try manually deleting just your eBay cookies in the test browser. If that restores the description, try the same thing in the original browser.

Do you see "See Full Item Description" click that then you will see the description.
