Is it unethical to lie in order to sell something? Yes, yes it is.
This sort of puffery is relatively minor and is thus not tremendously unethical, but it is unethical.
- bdangubic 6mo ago> Is it unethical to lie in order to sell something? what exactly is a lie in this context specifically I wonder?
- AnimalMuppet 6mo agoIn your scenario, "up and coming" is specifically a lie.
- bdangubic 6mo agono one really lied to me, most certainly not the seller. blame my wife for that one :)
- wat10000 6mo ago> “up and coming area” which never upped and never came Is this so difficult that you can't even detect your own lie specifically constructed as an example of it?
- bdangubic 6mo agoI would not put this on my listing, what are you smoking mate?! (I own a condo in brightwood park in northwest dc, been sketchy since 2008 when I bought it, you need an address? lol)
- wat10000 6mo agoYou asked: > Is it unethical for me to sell my Condo which is in “up and coming area” which never upped and never came and has a very high crime rate (with/without disclaimer)? That would be lying in order to sell something, and thus unethical. You then expressed confusion over what exactly would be a lie here, despite you very clearly stating what the lie is in the above quote.
