Default Re: Radiophile Auctions

I am suggesting that the vendor declares the item complete
That was my point (albeit not expressed well enough). Descriptions on Radiophile auction lots are those given by the vendor. Unlike large auction houses where lots are submitted and stored by the auctioneers, there is no time to examine each lot prior to it being put out for sale. Inspections by potential bidders are thus crucial. As many lots are estate sales, the vendor may well not know anything about the items they are putting up for sale, so everything must be considered incomplete / faulty unless specifically noted otherwise.
