Posting a link to high quality ( not cell phone) pictures works great.
My favorite is a seller who says " we all know what it looks like/ Google is your friend". If your gun is not new in box the no I don't know exactly what your 1982 700 looks like!!!

I esp like the classic "gun on the floor with yellow toenails at the edge of the pic" shot.
I used to do the same shot wearing these slippers but had to stop cuz I started to like to wear them all the time.

My cel phone take 10 or 12MB pics.....and I'm pretty sure all yours do too. I'd say the crap part of crappy pics is coming from the user....or this app

wow you should continue to wear them, the success may not coming from selling ....
I've had that happen, too. There were plenty of pics in the ad, but he wanted more, so I took more. Then he wanted pics of markings, muzzle etc etc. This was for a SMLE that was sportered. No real value, nothing special.
Meanwhile someone looked at ad, looked at the pics, looked at the price and said "I'll take it"
I always laugh when someone wants to play around or haggle and someone else scoops it.

Agreed..... Indecisiveness loses you a gun, plain and simple....... I have no issue in today's age of scamming with providing a pic of something showing I actually own the gun....... In spite of my trader rating...... But you snooze you lose and these guys that think they are royalty and that, as soon as they ask for a pic, the rifle is theirs to buy or refuse make me laugh...... In fact, I would go as far as saying I actually get a small sense of satisfaction watching a nice rifle get snatched from underneath them.....
I just dove on a collection of Ruger rifles described as "M77-RS NIB three rifle set"... I didn't even ask what chamberings before I said, I'll take it... as luck would have it, I cashed in BIG TIME...
Sometimes you have to "shoot first and ask questions later..."

Wtf?..... I was driving back from PA......... Is there a non euro quarterbore in the mix?...... Or a .358?.....
Good catch though...... I am about to go the USA route you took........
How about a NIB M77-RS 20" Carbine .358!
The other two I have spoken of... an M77-RS in 7X64 Brenneke and 9.3X62.
If you are importing now, you have to really want it or find a great deal, cuz our dollar is killing us on USA imports.
