For sf/fantasy/horror, the quickie way to check to see if someone's listing is even worth opening is against the Internet Science Fiction Database, which will generally tell you if someone has real published credentials (and not the imaginary ones imported from the alternate universe where they really are a best-selling award-winning author with their single CreateSpace book).
Thanks so much for doing that every day for general consumption. As an SF fan, I really appreciate it!
