I am curious to the usage of those. Like, why that character instead of the more common square brackets? Why do these sellers commonly choose that symbol? To me it's often kind of a flag of potentially questionable quality, so I'd like to know why they do that.
If anyone has insight to share I'd love it.
- bee_rider 2y agoI have no actual insight, but I’ll offer this theory up in the hopes that I’ll learn something by being corrected. I assumed they were the default on some Chinese site (alibaba or temu or something like that), and just got copied over by default.
- vel0city 2y agoI wouldn't doubt it's some default from whatever cross listing tool that's common but I have no knowledge of. Definitely a deep world to explore that I currently only have a surface level knowledge of. Always another rabbit hole to explore.
