Some people need lessons in photography!

This is a picture of a shirt that hubby bid on and won (his was the only bid for 99p).

Obviously due to the awful picture, no-one else bid. The shirt arrived today and it is really nice! (It's not the smokey one from my other thread). They have washed it too as it smells nice.

I have copied just the picture from the listing to protect my Ebay identity.



Hubby took a bit of a chance bidding on it, but came up trumps!

It does frustrate me when sellers can't be bothered to take decent photos....found that a lot recently especially with clothing, how some people find it hard put something on a hanger and take a photo is beyond me - so many Ive seen are screwed up on the floor etc or the picture taken at some obscure angle, normally sideways or even upside down.
you'd have thought that if people want to sell something they would take a few minutes to make sure it is well presented!

Poor descriptions and poor photos = deals to me, last week i picked up a Dell Streak phone hat has a stock photo and had the title "Dell Android Tablet" with the description "Good condition"

Once received it looked new in box, only paid £125 for it (RRP around 450)

Also picked up a 80GB classic for £30 that was perfect about a year ago that had a picture so poor you couple tell what model it was) and a gibberish description

Have lost out a few times but I think the bargains make the punt worth while

They do say that a picture paints a thousand words.
