Reused Item Photos. Misleading?


I noticed today that there are two Ruby 3 carts for sale from different buyers. Each uses the same photographs to seemingly represent the condition and packaging of the item for sale. I think it is misleading practice unless disclosed as a representitive photo of a similer item.

How do members feel about this practice?

Marty,

You forgot to include "but I digress" somewhere in the middle of your description.

In case you didn't know, that's a sure fire way to show you're a clever writer.
in this case, it seems like they're the same cartridge. looks like someone bought it and decided to sell it and used the pics from the previous seller.

i agree the pics in the ads should be of the actual item or disclose otherwise.
Viridian- You are on my black list.
$##&%$*!#@ like you - are the ones that screw-up this
whole exp.
Good luck on your next sell.....????

I agree completely with Viridian.

He does sell nothing but complete crap.
Sometimes, I have trouble even recognizing the unit in question from the photo he supplies through all the dust, rust, dirt and debris. The set of "Minty" speakers you sold my friend had a picture of what looked like three way speakers, and yet the speakers that arrived were two way speakers, and were labeled "Kraco". Still, they do work, which was somewhat surprising. (PS My friend is coming over next week and is bringing a few buddies to thank you personally. I knew you would not mind me giving him your real address, (Not the address you use when selling items, but the one you use when buying items. BTW, how are those Wilson Alexandria speakers I sold you for $500 sounding. Ha! Ha!)

(Marty, btw, that last amp you sold me was really something special. I was expecting a nice solid state amp, but when I opened the box and saw the tubes, I was pleasantly surprized. Of course, the fireworks display it put on when I plugged it in was worth the cost of admission alone! (At least according to my kid!) And I should note, that the local Fire Dept. (and my insurance carrier), would like to talk to you about the extension cord you substituted for the power cable.)

So to answer the question posed, No, I don't think having pictures of the actual unit in question is necessary at all.
