When I sold my old camera, the first advert received questions but no offers. I had used a photograph from the manufacturer's website and written 'good condition'. A friend pointed out that buyers could not see my actual camera or understand what 'good' meant. I replaced the image with my own photographs, including a small scratch, and listed exactly what came in the box.
