Sure, but you did just fine uploading old photos....just repeat what you did, but use some new photos that you take. (Basically, you need to take photos, save them as JPGs, reduce their size if need be, upload) ....It's just fair to the buyer to see what the case looks like in 2025 and not in 2022, especially when the item carries a hefty price tag.

i have bought things from you in the past and this case has been sitting in my closet for the past few years.

I understand, but you still should use current photos or otherwise add a disclaimer that these are old photos but the case has been in the closet, etc. etc.
If you still are having trouble uploading new photos, PM me. I will gladly assist you.

Why did "Dominick" list the case for sale on Facebook Marketplace 3 hours ago? And the Centennial elephant print a day ago?

To help settle any problems with the pictures that were used, this case was built for mikesky. These are my pictures I sent to Mike when I originally built the case.

It’s a beauty. It’s a shame the billiard world has lost your artistry, enjoy your retirement.

Beautiful work! But photos still should be current and not a few years old, or else noted on the post. That's only fair to a buyer. Offer is still good to Mikesky to upload his new photos.

I agree 100 percent, but when people start accusing him of using someone else's for sale pictures when he didn't, that's a problem.

Agreed. Photos looked similar to photos used in an ad that ran a few years back for one of your cases. Photos must have been provided by you at that time as well. That was the tipoff that these photos are old. Also, these photos are similar to the ones on your Facebook page. Photos, especially of cases, should be current. Cases, even yours as great as they are, can show wear over time. I am offering my help again to Mikesky to upload fresh photos.
