    First seller does note that "the scans are generic". I wonder if he grabbed it from the second seller, or vice-versa.

    Actually, in his description, he tells you it is not the item pictured.

    "These sets are well cared for, but please note the scans are generic."

    I would never bid on this seller's auctions. Not only do you pay $6 shipping, but if you use PayPal he wants another $3.00, supposedly for signature delivery confirmation. Last time I looked, that was $1.75, not $3.

    Yeah... I looked for the 'generic' picture thing - but missed it.
    definitely made me scratch my head for a minute...

    Obviously, one of those guys stole the image from somewhere. Hard to tell who.

    Just that the sets are the same - I once emailed a seller who was selling alot of mint/proof sets
    if the one pictured was the one I would get (the pictured one had a nice CAM half).

    The reply was -> no these are stock photos, but the one I am selling now is much nicer!


    It looks like 1 or 2 of these sellers, downloaded somone else's picture.

    << <i>no these are stock photos, but the one I am selling now is much nicer! >>



    I can't count how many times I've gotten that response when inquiring about a pictured set that has an Accented Hair Kennedy in it. Sometimes I'm tempted to eMail back with "Please define much nicer".

    I believe the 2nd auction was posted first. Nice of the 1st poster to save us money by not going to the time and trouble to make his own pics. Not!!

    It is hard to tell because the first guy has used that photo in previous auctions.
