I had to laugh when I saw this ad on Craigslist.
I mean, you dont have to be an expert photographer, but given how bad these pics are, I probably wouldnt have posted them.

Agreed. WTF. "Collectors take notice" ?? GLWS

my dad was into amateur photography, years beyond the point his eyes had failed..
to him, what he saw through the lens, the prints too, looked great! (idk how)
telling him would have only been mean and only started yet another argument of course.

Earthquake!

How is it even possible to get a picture that blurry?

Maybe he has Parkinson's. And these were the best ones.

Buy it, then pay in blurred bills.

Slam a few beers, I'll bet those pics clear right up.

Mambe they wanted it to look like it was under water.

Do I need 3D glasses to view this pick?

I like this almost as much as the people who bitch about "tire kickers" yet price it at least 40% over market, seem unable to describe the game's condition and act put upon when asked for photos. People are crazy.

Quoted from jdoz2:

Not much better than this one. I offered $3.
ebay.com link » 1994 World Cup Pin Ball Machine

QUITE the description I might add too..

Maybe he didn't have is glasses on and thought it was ok.

I occasionally fire off a reply to the seller, telling them their photos are useless, and asking if they could enlist the help of a 6 year old son/daughter/neighborhood kid to take & post better photos.
And yes, I do get an occasional reply filled with #@!+@!. Its a stupid world we live in, but at least its entertaining.

That picture was taken with a vacoline lense.
