yes but all that means you have to add something as an image, so you could just add

Well, being pedantic, no you couldn't.

Firstly, the image has text, which isn't allowed. Secondly, if this is an item which isn't new then it can't be a stock photo.

that image is just an example as you could create you own on the same lines or just right click and save a stock image and use it.

dont forget some business sellers use provided stock images for their items. and their are many images on ebay with text for things link ink cartridges, web hosting etc.

Look the contents of their loft for only £2,200. And have to buy it all without seeing it and go up and get it from their loft. So basically you are paying over 2k to tidy their loft for them and take away all the useless junk.

I bet that person thinks they are creating a lot of interest with all the views and watchers that they must be getting!

If she's not sure if her personal stuff that she wants retrieved is up there how can she be sure what she is selling is there either? :cool:

I love this bit of the description:
REALLY NICE COLOUR GREEN, ALMOST THE SAME COLOUR AS THIS TEXT ON HERE,
BUT, THEY ARE A BIT DARKER.


Very accurate then. :rotfl:
