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?

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.
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.

Good luck on your next sell.....????
