In light of the title saying "how NOT to Take an ebay picture", I nominate this auction here that does not have a picture in it yet they want you to shell out $12,900 or more. Surely, lack of a picture on a big money item would be worthy in this contest...



Very Clever, though the title isn't "How not to sell a $12,000 coin on ebay", but I like where your head is at...


Oh darn, they must have heard us laughing.. pics are up now

LOL. Well, my nomiation still stands. Wins awards for not having any pictures in the first place, and now having crummy pictures for a $12,900 auction. With my nomiation, you get the best of both sides. No picture at all or crummy pictures!

The photos make the coin look bad


You can't see the face value, not to mention the date, or mintmark.

THE PRIZE:
- I have no idea but it's gonna be something snazzy


I think it would be funny if you posted a really bad photo of the prize on the last day of the contest!
