I have just been reading through posts on facebook sites.
A few comments made me think 'would I buy unseen' and the answer is no.
But it seems a lot of people think differently. Some of the comments are:
From dealers on adverts 'honestly described to the unseen buyer'........ 'includes transport. No money due until delivered'.........'no viewing necessary. Buy unseen with confidence'...
From buyers 'Its a different world now. Most people buy unseen'........ 'Every time Ive arranged to view a horse the seller has messaged me its sold to an unseen buyer'......'I bought unseen from xxxx and the horse is a bit greener than described but fine'........ and there are also some dissatisfied unseen buyers too!!
Is buying unseen really that common?Are people these days too lazy to go and look? Too short of time? Just gamblers at heart?
