Sellers, if you're gonna be lazy and not have a description...

[southern*sweet*tea]

...at least have a decent photo.  I had a 15  year old keychain camera that took better pictures than this.

Seller's description (not verbatim) - buyer will be buying based on the photos.  ::sigh::  All 12 photos are like this.

Sorry, but as a buyer it's frustrating. I have money, I WANT TO BUY, but I can't if you're not gonna show me what you have!  And it's happening more and more...and I'm spending less and less.

I can't stand lazy sellers who post blurry photo after blurry photo. When you see it looks that bad- re-take the pictures! If all of your photos are blurry then either learn how to use your digital camera or get a smartphone where even the most tech challenged can see the square that shows an image is in focus.

You can get an old smartphone for cheap and not hook it up with your cell provider- just use it as a camera. The photos may not be stellar with the older models, but at least they're passable unlike the photo in this thread.

All I can say is....

wow....

That's probably one of the worse listings i have seen in awhile...:(

[tunicaslot]

Although it's horrendous - is this a new seller? Some folks just throw up anything - just as they do on FB Marketplace and Craigs list and all the other local social media sites.

or at least get a cheap tripod.

[lex-talon]

That is an unacceptable photo and some sellers wonder why they're not selling anything. 

[smileytown18]

I'n just curious, Has the seller sold anything recently with these quality pictures?
I have a good camera and bad camera, and my bad one takes better then these...

It's the 'new fad diet'; no cookbooks = no food

[chapeau-noir]

I've actually seen worse - one where it appeared that the item was running away from the camera (a blur moving out of the picture) - so they really thought, 'yeah, that'll do fine'?

19 year seller, registered in 2000, over 1600 items listed in their store.  I actually took a look through their store, almost all their photos are blurry. Looks like they sell 20 or so items a month.  They could probably sell a lot more if you could see what they're selling.

Sometimes I’ve wondered if this is a selling psychological technique > the item(s) look so much better in person when you get them! Whew! 🤔

Did the listing name the books?  or was it a Remember!  my pictures are part of the listing and don't forget you owe me five stars***

[ersatz_sobriquet]

haha!

Some years ago my digital camera battery was dead so I grabbed my iphone and took the pictures and never looked back. Well except to upgrade the iphone.

Nope.  It's a $60 listing, too. It may or may not be worth it, but since I can't actually SEE what's being sold, I guess I'll never find out.

Their loss.

[jersey..authentix]

You certainly do see some pretty bad Photos. Beats me why you wouldn't want to show what you are selling in the best format possible.

Since laziness has been brought up. What about those lazy buyers that never read descriptions and buy based on Pictures.

I had a listing  stated custom jersey , stated the company, very clearly explained , but yet the buyer purchases and claim fake on the return.  Would have taken nothing to read. Wasn't hidden.
