The answer to that is simple—they don't want you as a buyer. The buyer they want is the one not concerned with the number of images and who salivates over the lot based on the images provided. Given their long history on the Bay and its massive reach to prospective customers, they are betting that buyer is out there. And if s/he/they is, why do the work to make 100 images?

I think that more images would lower the price on this one.

Anthony's used to provide hundreds of pix but recently have changed their MO.

Usually they list an item and the next day they drop the price 50%. I don't know how successful this is but I agree they are "fishing for the foolish"

Strange there's one bidder and the price has incremented twice. That usually require another bidder doesn't it?


I'm also wondering the same thing? Even if the original bidder upped their bid, it would show the only single lowest opening bid, would it not? And if someone else bid but was immediately/automatically outbid, would it not still show the other bidder and their max bid?
