I have come to realize stupidity knows no bounds.

We all get those dumb questions. You know, you put the dimensions in the listing, then someone asks how big is it. Or the feedback that says "It was smaller than I thought".

 

This one, I thinks, tops them all.

 

I offer a jigsaw puzzle for sale. RIGHT IN THE HEADLINE it says 1000 pieces. I just got an email asking me how many pieces are in the puzzle. (And it says the same thing in 2 other places)

 

H L Mencken was right:

 

Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.

Yeah, those definitely take too long.  I like the ones that say "6 months".

I stopped listing puzzles when the shipping got ridiculous (the larger puzzles in box are heavy) and had a couple of SNADs for 'missing pcs' even though I had actually completed the puzzle and shown it completed.
