Reused Item Photos. Misleading?

I feel it HAS to be disclosed if the pics aren't actual ones.

If I use a stock photo, as opposed to a photo of the actual item, I always disclose. It is the ONLY way to do it.

Most of the stuff that I sell on this site is totally thrashed, so I pretty much have to harvest pictures of nicer examples off of the net or I wouldn't sell a thing. I don't have a problem with it. You can also squeeze out a few more bucks by finding pictures with better options or exotic finishes than the crap that you have. Works like a charm. Pepper up your prose like that guy from the DAK catalog, Drew; "sound explodes out of the speakers", etc. And don't forget to use clear descriptors like "minty" and "used in second system". Happy selling.

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.
