Seller claims that they're away and will post actual pics of bag later...hah!

I can't believe the nerve of some people on ebay!!!!

I ran into this auction with a stock photo of a speedy. I was hoping to find actual pics of the bag but there was only 1 stock photo avail.

I scroll down to find that another member has asked them to post actual pics and the seller CLAIMS THEY'RE AWAY AND WILL POST PICS ASAP...

hah. I can't believe this person figured this scamming tactic!!

Why list something in the first place with no actual pics and "go on vacation?"

Question & AnswerAnswered OnQ: can you post an actual picture of the bag?Mar-06-07A: Hi, I will get one up this weekend. Sorry about having it up so late, I'm currently traveling for work. If the reserve is not met in this auction, I will repost with pictures of the actual bag. Thanks!

What she meant for?? She mean is reserve not met ( will not get winner ) then she'll post actual pics for her Speedy35?? So weird, just skip her auction!

It's normal answer to ask potential buyers to wait for a few days since seller not in home BUT so weird to tell potential buyers,"If the reserve is not met in this auction, I will repost with pictures of the actual bag. Thanks!"

tPFers got this same response from someone who STOLE my pictures of a Fendi Spy and claimed them as her own. she said she couldn't post more pictures as she was on vacation. she did manage to go steal a few more pics from my auction and upload them, though. doesn't add up!
