Aren't photos a requirement to posting something for sale?

If so, why are there so many ads lately that say "photos upon request"?

If not, photos should be required.

Just my two cents.

PL requirement for sizing to a maximum of 800 on the long side of an image is missed by many, hence the "images upon request".

No; photos are not required for a classifieds transaction.

Good photos do generally help a FS ad sell more quickly and painlessly, but certainly not a requirement.

i have personally bought a number of items here without photos. there are a few people here who i trust, and if they say something is in good condition - i know it will be.

do what you need to do to feel comfortable before buying, but more rules are not the answer.

Was Paceline acquired by Walmazon or Gooblay?

Sorry. Guess I was mixing up the required number of posts with required photos.

I agree. It’s lazy imo. My 8 year old niece knows how to resize an image.

Jus sayin......

Jus sayin......Tapatalk in my old iPhone gave me a resize option when uploading, but I haven't found how to do that on my Pixel.

I'm severely tech challenged and I can post pix to Craigslist but not here so I offer to send pix my email to interested parties. Maybe someone's 8 year old niece could be my guru?
