Pictures, More Pictures

You're selling gear for ~$5000 and more - I would want to see multiple views with hi-res before I decided to drop that amount of cash. I also think the requests are reasonable.

As a seller, I prefer to send off all of the hi res pics I can - as it documents the condition in a fairly good record, subject to what can actually show up in a photo.

Here's my view - If I'm selling a hi$ component, and a prospective buyer requests more pictures, or asks nitty questions, I don't think for a nanosecond about whether to comply. It takes at most 10 min to take shots from multiple angles and upload them to an email.

Certainly, do what you want. But if I was a buyer interested in your sale and you balked at sending me some pic's, it would probably be the last conversation we had. Feedback isn't everything, and I agree pic's aren't everything either, but, it's so easy to be accommodating and demonstrate goodwill by being responsive.
