Send a Message instead of 'Ask a Question' in the ASL

[Anniemcc2]

Please could you change the wording of 'Ask [Seller/Buyer's name] a Question' in the ASL to 'Send [Seller/Buyer's name] a Message'


Thank you.

I had a buyer "Ask me a question" yesterday. Except it wasn't a question it was a statement, regarding a minor detail of my item. Whilst I was researching the issue the clock went past midnight and I got an email from ebid informing me that the "Question" had not been answered. Of course I was going to acknowledge the diligence of the buyer and I have now "answered" his question. But I agree there is a difference between "Question" and "Message" and I think the distinction required a different process
