<p>[QUOTE=&quot;aubade21, post: 2007642, member: 44104&quot;]I take a some pride in my coin photography, but I often wonder if my high definition photos in ebay auctions sometimes hurt my hammer price. With my pictures, people can scrutinize every little detail and talk themselves out of a buy because of a small rim nick or hairline scratch. However, if my pictures were from farther away, or were amateurish and out of focus, or so small that people can&#039;t make out details, people might be willing to gamble (there are a few CT threads on this very thing) for the potential of a great coin with a bad picture.</p><p>Now, I hate dealing with returns, and don&#039;t think it&#039;s all that ethical to post crappy pictures intentionally, but I know a few dealers on ebay that have made it their business to do this very thing, and wonder if anybody has stories where crappy pictures brought more money than high quality ones, and the ethics behind such a practice.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
