It is a beautiful example at least you would know what you were buying lol.
Better too many pics than not enough, but can you imagine how long that must've taken to list?
I guess if there is a flaw you can hide it in plain sight and claim full disclosure! ;)

they say a picture is worth a 1000 words, well that guy took the time two write volume,1,2,3,4,5etc.good on him,i say honest and well done

If you scroll at a nice even medium-fast pace it is almost like an old "Flip-Card" Movie!

Indeed, I have never seen a listing with this many images before.

Lovely older Model DS!

Lot of overkill but one can't say they didn't see the whole revolver, except the innards. Someone will pick it up either by his trade option or a purchase even with the "as is" clause. Looks like a nicely taken care of old DS. I didn't check all the pictures, did he ever take off the stocks to show the frame?
I started that thread last week in the Lounge section about posting auction photos... Maybe he read it.. I was inspired because of the sellers that say "a picture says a thousand words" or " the photos speak for themselves" and the 3 photos were speechless..dark and grainy. This seller has too many of the same shots, but regardless, I can't argue that he's hiding anything. If there's a scratch or blemish, it should be revealed in auction photos. It is on a short 1 day auction, but should be enough time to look at each photo thoroughly...maybe. :) Nice gun and outstanding efforts on an auction. I bought a gun yesterday, but about pestered the seller to death with questions that were pertinent before I bought it. most could have been answered with more and better photos.

The seller probably needs the highly inflated price to pay for all of the extra pictures in the listing!

Holy cow! Must be some kind of record. His other auctions have a like number of photos too. Maybe he is a frustrated would-be hand model! :cool:

+1 Lots of great pics, but hard to see that kind of value for a Detective Special...
At least I would know what it would look like if I set it on my Kitchen Table and gave it a heck of a spin!

Whenever I've listed a gun for sale on GB each picture had it's own individual number. His pictures are in one big list. How do you do that?
Thanks, Joe
He's a thorough seller isn't he?! That's the kind of stuff we like to see.
