    How many of you sell coins with the reverse upside down?

    I strongly dislike this practice as it causes visual chaos.

    now sure I could turn off screen auto rotate and flip my phone over, but lately all I see is blurry photos which both give me a headache.

    I can count on one hand the number of coins I have sold over the years…. Just speaking as a tech-loser, I can tell you this. There are times I take a photo that shows up on my phone sideways or upside down. Embarrassingly, I don’t know how to correct that….. Perhaps the seller you are thinking of suffers from tech-loser syndrome like me.

    My phone does the same thing it rotates sometimes for pictures when I have the normal screen position locked.

    I don't think I have ever "willingly" sold a coin. When forced to do so I either went to a local shop or the next coin show but always in person (the local mall had one 4-5 times a year). I almost died the day I walked into a collectable/pawnshop with my G$1 type set and he offer me 90% melt. I had previously bought quite a few coins there an nice prices, now i knew why. He went out of business shortly after... I know doesn't help you much lol

    I could not live with myself if I did that lol, sometimes they get rotated unknowingly during the picture taking process and I always edit the pic to be right-side up, CANNOT STAND UPSIDE DOWN PHOTOS...:confused:

    Yeah, but it's not easy. You have to do something like put it on Youtube to get a format that will post here.

    No reputable seller should ever post upside down photos.

    Randy.....Pretty easy fix even for a tech loser, After you take the picture.....tap on it and it should get you to a screen with
    choices like Trash and edit....tap on edit, and it should bring the picture up with editing choices. you will see a curved arrow which means rotate the picture 1/4, Tap it and your picture will return to right side up. Now get in there and give it a go! LOL

    not only that but the 3rd party coin grading company's reverse labels are upside down. I would think it would be easy enough to re-orient the reverse label. $10 Gold Rev.jpg
