We all probably have piles but have you ever considered leaving them in your photo? Is this a marketing technique I haven't tried LOL. Good thing they have the mannequin. It's so much more professional ;)
I have an expensive brand of clothing that I like, so I've saved a search on eBay. The listings with really terrible pictures are the ones that I'm likely to buy - for a fraction of what the seller would have gotten if they had done a better job with their photos. Needless to say I'm pretty darned careful about the pictures on the items I sell!
That's the thing. They are losing money with their bad photos but we savvy buyers are getting a good deal. Even my worst photos when I started didn't show my piles!
It hasn't sold yet. It's listed for only 12.99. I just went back to check the price and saw this in the description: Listing Created by __________ Senior Women's Apparel Photographer, ____________. I took the name out to preserve their dignity ;)
I don't like it when I see feet in the pictures lol. Someone will arrange an item on the floor to take a picture and not crop out their bare feet, ugly toes, shoe tips etc.
OMG! What on earth were they thinking?

DeleteWow! I don't have a fancy mannequin, but I do try to have a clean solid color background.
ReplyDeleteI'd at least throw a sheet over the pile! (if I had piles… ;)
DeleteHorrible photo..lol makes one wonder!
ReplyDeleteFunny. I see craigslist ads for sofas with huge dogs lounging all over them. I'm really going to buy that smelly thing! Ha ha.
ReplyDeleteI saw a listing once with a shirt on the dirtiest, most disgusting, mannequin I've ever seen. Still sold for top money. WTH?
ReplyDeleteI have seen larger items with a beer can next to it for scale, lol!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what the rest of the house looks like. I could not live like that.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious..did she sell for top dollar or not? You never know.. LOL I would be embarrassed to show a photo like that.
