Why when you are selling a trailer (mainly ebay) don't you put the size of the trailer on the advert description FFS,

Rant over.

You try buying a set of wheels/tyres. If you're lucky they will tell you if they are 16/17/18" but it's not a given - one advert has a description & 6 pictures & in none of them can you see the wheel/tyre size. I wouldn't have though it possible, but they have missed it in every picture.

That's before you get onto rim size, offset, PCD & center bore size.

Even when you give people the information they don’t read it.

I was selling an ifor williams P8E last month and rather than typing it all out I gave a link to the page on their website with all the dimensions and weight information.

I still had loads of messages asking for information that was quite clear for them to read themselves if they’d bothered to open the link.

Really, just putting 6 x 4 or 5 x 3 was to much trouble.

Yes. Click the link and you can have any dimension you want.

But some buyers are too lazy to do that.
