Maybe not a stupid question but, I once sold a Boxoffice movie theatre journal from 1955 on EBAY. I had put in the description "388 pages". We'll that was 388 numbered pages and the buyer was very upset that it did not have 388 actual pages. That would have been one big magazine!

I get these ALL THE TIME even though my postings all say in big bold print: THIS IS NOT A VIDEO. THIS IS NOT A DVD. Usually the buyer completes and pays for the transaction and then sends an e-mail saying, "I just ordered a video from you." This is to ensure additional work on my part, cancelling the transaction through Ebay so that I can get my commission fee back and reversing the PayPal payment. It also means I have to recreate the listing for my dbase which automatically deletes listings once a purchase is made. I love customers who don't read the listing. The second dumbest question that I get ALL THE TIME and love to death is from people who see I'm selling a lobby card from let's say The Bride Wore Boots who'll write to me and ask where they can find the DVD because they've been looking all over for it.
