Accent on the word "DARK" in Darkside. image

At least, I think those are Darkside coins.

They could be stale Oreo cookies, for all I know. Or tiddlywinks. There is a grouping of vaguely round objects in the photo, I can tell that much.

You gotta love it when a seller puts up a picture like this and then instructs you to "see images", as if that's gonna accomplish anything. image

    True, my first eBay auctions in '99 didn't even HAVE pics. You could get away with that back then- lots of people had pictureless auctions. Nowadays you can pretty much forget about it if you don't have at least a marginal picture.

    Then again, I dunno. I might put all these used CDs I have here up without pics. Who has time to take pictures of 150 cheap, used CDs? Still, I probably ought to grab pix of the album art from somewhere.

    There are still newbies and folks who just don't even attempt to get better at photography stuff for e-bay but I'd say the general trend has improved quite a bit in the last couple of years. Folks are either contracting out to have stuff photographed or are learning how to use their cameras.

    With 421 sales that have feedback I'd say this person is more on the lazy side.
