<p>[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 2385723, member: 36230"]Sure there are, but there are also reasons like not understanding how their camera or auto focus works (how many times here have we seen someone post a photo with a nice clear background and blurred coin?), laziness, or even stupidity among others. The notion that a poor photo must automatically mean the offering is a sham is simply ludicrous. The same goes for a seller with little, even zero, feedback; while it may have been a good idea to at least build a few buying feedback first just for show, it doesn't prove anything, and every single seller on ebay had to start somewhere. Should such a listing be approached cautiously? Sure, but so should every potential transaction with an unknown party/individual. Plus, the last I knew ebay was happy to withhold payment from new sellers, so if still true, it could be argued that such purchases actually offer an additional level of protection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
