Valid points John and you are right. 

Take your example of flipper kits - I dare say that the template go into a bit more detail and may ask something like whether the flippers have been -

Stripped, cleaned and recond'd  -  N
Brand new flipper kit installed (coil stop, plunger, coil sleeve, playfield bushings, flipper bats)  - Y   flipper kit from PSPA  (or these components split up into their own question)
New coils      Y/N

The idea of a template is to alert a potential buyer or give them a trigger to ask more questions about a particular part of the description as well as encourage the seller to describe things that he or she may have previously left out, especially to an inexperienced buyer who may not know what to ask.  I guess the idea is to make the deal as transparent as possible and at the end of the day 'caveat emptor'. 

The template idea is worth a shot, if it doesn't work then go back to how it was, if it does work then happy days.
