In the GL auctions that just closed they were disposing of 5 M332 Ammo
trailers near me in Augusta Maine. In viewing the auctions I notice that
even though each trailer had a different serial number in the
description they were using the same trailer picture for all 5 auctions.

Being a person that would full and honest disclosure I sent them an
inquiry 5 days ago about this issue and asked them....

Why were they using the same picture for all 5 auctions

Did they have correct pictures of the vehicles they were selling.

This is their response (which came an hour after the auction closed)

NO KIDDING...that the responsibility is mine to insure what I am bidding
on...isn't there some responsibility on the part of the lister to insure
that what he/she is respresenting is factual.

I could be wrong though...they may have moved all 5 trailers to the
exact spot next to the Gen trailer to take the individual
pictures...yeah right.

I did not bid as it was impossible to know what you were really getting
unless you viewed each trailer and their response to my email of 120
hours ago came an hour after the close.

If they were going to send me a BS cut and paste response they could
have done it days ago.

What a bunch of sleazy weasels these people are.

These were the auctions.....
