Oh of course you do not deserve it at all. It is completely normal to literally steal other people's property and use it to sell something.
It seems to be a norm these days.
And of course never mind the fact that I use expensive camera, take my time making pictures, edit them and do all other work.
So you can just come in and STEAL them for free.
I did not see in your post anything about "pictures from previous owners"
And yes, of course it would be nicer to show good quality pictures. Better chances to sell the cue. But, did you put any work into those pictures? Except perhaps for stealing them? Plus, when I took those pictures, cue was brand new. And it has been over 5 years since.
So, in a way you are misrepresenting a cue. And its condition. Did you know that shafts are not made of the same material? I guess not.
There are few more things about this cue that you did not post on here.
And lastly, why should I be nicer about it? Give me one good reason.
Yes, it is not a crime to steal pictures. But, it is unethical. I guess you would not know anything about that.
On a nicer side - good luck with your sale Sir.
