Warning tags are ugly (and other world news)

Sold one thing and the lady had questions.  Im very cool with questions.  Two hours of solid back and forth later, I have looked up videos on youtube and pretty much given every possible direction on how to use this item.  Then she says "ok, Ill get back to you in one week, I have not decided if I can live with this warning label.  Its big and ugly."  Seriously?  
I mean its a warning label, held on by a thread, the label is ugly you keep it and cut off the label.

Haha no, just a baby sling. I could have removed it in seconds if she had asked beforehand.

Good bet that she is of the mindset that the warning label needs to remain intact, or else whatever it is might lose its value decades down the road.

If it works, sell it. If it works well, sell it for more. If it doesn't work, quadruple the price and sell it as an antique.

Trying to outlaw ignorance would be futile.  Better to just remove all warning labels and let nature take it's course.  Smiley Very Happy

Not saying 'NO' doesn't mean 'YES'.

I agree.  Many misunderstood labels that said DO NOT REMOVE and never removed them, although it was permissible for the consumer who bought the item to remove the tag, many didn't as they thought it was not allowed.
