Well, you see, the seller hung the jackets in his garage above his Mercedes-Benz to show... well, I'm not quite sure what he's trying to show. Maybe he just wanted the light from outside. And let's not forget the great condition the jackets are in...

Well, no offense to the seller, but just how the **** is the buyer supposed to know just what he's buying if there aren't any detail shots? I'm guessing a label would be somewhat important to photograph if you're advertising something like this.

I used to sell things for a living, thus usually have sympathy for sellers. But this is just some :triple-tactical-facepalm: ****.
