Mark - If you're selling in e*ay you really should post pictures of the
actual item you are selling... it *always* makes me wonder if the seller
admits that the picture is not the actual item for sale, and I've passed on
auctions due to that. Especially with photographic items, I wonder why can't
this guy post a picture, what's he hiding...? Even if you don't have a
digicam, shoot a few pics and scan them on a $30 flatbed scanner... I think
you seriously lower the amount you can hope to get for the item by putting
up a 'stock' picture or no picture, even if there is full description in
text.
