AAPK Store Photographs

Post by XX Case XX »

May I suggest to some of the store owners here that you actually look at the photographs of the knives you're trying to sell before you post them? Lately, I have seen some horrendous photos of some knives for sale here.

I get that we're not all professional photographers, but c'mon man, with todays cameras, as well as the cameras on our phones, I would think a decent picture would be possible, especially the close-ups.

The other day I saw a picture of a knife for sale here, and I could tell more about the tree in the background than the actual item listed.

If I can't clearly see the item for sale in the picture, and I'm interested, I'm just going to ask you for additional photos, so why not take good pictures in the first place and avoid all the drama.

I agree Mike! My online habit is if I can't see it or read something clearly I move on. So with a lot of folks a bad picture could loose you a sell. Always check the clarity, lighting, color and focus.
