| Hi, we would like you to add a damage tick box under the used condition that
would work like incomplete set tick box. That would avoid that customers buy
damaged parts without knowing it and will level up the average price to what
is should be.

If buyers weren't aware of damage, the part wasn't correctly listed:
Used Parts - Parts which have been previously used and are presumably still
in good, usable condition.
If the parts do show excessive wear, discoloration, excessive scratches, other
marks,etc. this should be noted in the *Comments* field.

| Yes of course we do comment our parts (go see our store) but when customers pass
through a wanted list and ask to see parts available from a store the damaged
parts are not identified before you procees to cart and payment and you have
to verify every items one by one. When you search for a set, you can request
to avoid incomplete sets. What we suggest is the same system that will give customers
the opportunity to skip the parts listed as damaged. In the same time, the damaged
parts will stop having impact on average price of good used parts. Incomplete
sets doesn't affect the average price of sets.

There have been several discussions (and suggestions) on that subject. They
are generally ended after a few “one’s part ‘with (heavy) playwear’ is another’s
‘damaged’ part and again another’s ‘not to be sold ever’ part” comments.

Like there are rules for new and used parts that are clear and universal, they
would be rules for damaged. I suggest the following:
'Damaged parts are part that have either heavy scratches, discoloration,
toothmarks or damage to the part.'
Concerning the fact that some parts that are used for some sellers would be considered
as damaged for others, that is the beauty of difference between the stores and
what makes the feedback so helpful.

What I meant was more like:
1. Did you look at the other suggestions and discussions?
2. Why do you think these other suggestions weren’t implemented?
3. Why do you think yours would be?
4. Isn’t it wasteful to have multiple identical suggestions? (Spreading the
votes, forgetting the past….)

Incomplete sets doesn't affect the average price of sets.

That I know, we are talking about damaged used parts not new or used. The tick
box could give buyers the chance to select if they want to have or not damaged
parts.
Again I am not talking about the way prices are diplayed for me as a seller but
give the right average price by taking out the very low priced damaged parts
out of the calculation.

As a regular buyer, I find this idea great! I noticed increased number of damaged
parts listed as used recently. There must be a clear distinction between used
(a bit scratchy) and heavily damaged parts.
Recently, I have to order typically one or two pieces more (as I calculate
with the parts which I throw to the trash immediately, because they are heavily
damaged). I think most of the damaged parts are bought as replacement parts for
incomplete used sets and buyer don't care with the quality.
