I was wondering if those listings were hers?

There's no way I'd even consider spending that kind of money with a seller who doesn't show pictures of her actual items! The seller has no proven history of designer item sales and can't even take the time to show the actual bags! Who knows whether they're even authentic?

It wouldn't surprise me at all - one of her posts in another forum talks about going into Chicago to shop, and Crystal Lake where the seller lives is in Chicago's NW suburbs. So it could easily be either the poster or a friend or relative.

No WAY would I follow her recommendations - hope no one else does either.

Not my auction. I don't even have an ebay account.

Do I know the person who listed it, yes. That is why I posted it in the listed section for authentic. If someone is interested I am sure they could ask for detailed photos of the item.

Why should a buyer have to ask for pictures that the seller should have posted in the listings? One could almost justify the use of a stock photo if other pictures of the important details proving authenticity and showing the extent of use were shown.

But for a seller to show only a stolen stock photo when selling used bags is setting herself up for SNAD disputes.

As for using stock photos, sellers shouldn't be using Coach's pictures. In fact, if the seller (or you) look at Coach's website, you'll see that their images are copyrighted:

Wow! You are really turning this into the biggest deal for no reason at all. I thought I would be nice and post this person's auctions to help them out but you are just attacking this over and over. I will tell her she needs to change the pics.
 
I text her about the photos having a copyright issue and that she would need to change them. Also let her know that it is recommended to add multiple photos. She text me back that she didn't realize the copyright thing and would change the pics within the hour. She also said the reason she was only posting one pic was that one picture is free. They charge you for every photo after that. She is willing to email pics to anyone who is seriously interested in them if they ask.

Hope that resolves all of the issues. Good night ladies.
