Yeah, I feel the same way- it's sort of like the 
IQ level on ebay is dropping, getting a lot of new 
users that don't seem to want to actually read 
auction text. On all of my contact letters, I end 
with a request to please reply with their mailing 
addy so I can go ahead and prepare the package- I 
mean, this helps them- I'm able to get it out 
faster if I do the packing before their payment 
arrives...I'd say a good 50% of my winners don't 
bother to comply, and it only delays their stuff 
by an extra day or so.I'm amazed they read enough 
to be able to bid sometimes...
