WHY THE CRAP IMAGES?

Post by motorman »

This seller is asking big bucks for this GPW RW#12 and yet the images he has posted are utter shit. Where are the close ups!!

If i am not mistaken i think that Numi may have questioned this sellers items before. I notice that he does not mention the word "ORIGINAL" anywhere in his listing. Slightly odd me thinks!! I am not going to bother looking at any of his other offerings if this is the best he can do to sell a HTF.

I recon this smells really bad!!!

One would think at that price more photos of better clarity and quality would be available. I'd be surprised if it sells without questions, etc.
Poor lighting as well. Oh, there is a best offer as well...how exciting.

Definitely mentioned before and the seller lists models in the wrong categories (a ploy, me thinks).

I didn't notice the category listing error, thanks for pointing that out Johnboy. Details like this are important nevertheless.

He puts on a new face often, that in itself is a warning bell, especially with it's frequency.

Yeah,this is TuT's Ebay User Id alright since the past 2yrs.I had been watching this a/c for a while now and he uses it for mainly his purchases but recently mixed with his sales.

Just 2days ago i wrote to him and told him that i was gonna report him for fraud if he attempts to let his auction run its duration of a faked,all yellow-wheeled ford tractor.
Here is the listing which he ended immediately.
