To the pool of skilled operators and techniciansexcerpt Part 97)

Nearly every posting I place on this newsgroup, I receive an average of 40
requests for pictures from tirekickers and people who can only afford to
post my pictures on thier wannabe collector web pages. (This has nothing
to do with those of you who used my pics to relist what I sold you on Ebay)
99% of you don't render the common courtesy of responding to say "thanks,
I'll pass" or even "pack it in your ass", while somebody that wants it waits
in line.
(They do not wait anymore boys).
As a public service to help prevent the above described folks from wasting
thier
precious time, please don't waste mine by asking for pictures.
There's plenty of pictures on the net of every conceivable ham rig to
gawk at and drool over.
If you don't believe my descriptions, are unable to understand what you
read,
or unable to articulate a query, don't blame public education, and by all
means,
PLEASE ignore my listings.
Thank-you, thank-you very much

What's this all about? You're selling stuff and complaining to
thousands of USENET readers because a few potential buyers are
asking for pictures?

You do know about "free" websites that'll let you post pictures?
That way, you upload the pics once and include the links in your
for sale listing.

Either way, dealing with 40 requests for pictures when you have
something for sale is better than ZERO requests.
