Is it common to pay for pictures ??????

Any views out there ?

Is it common for a prospective seller to want $35.00 per hour to take pictures of the parts he or she is selling? Most folks readily post pictures. I know I freely offer to take as many pictures as the prospective buyer may want. I would like the public's views on this open question. I think I am going to post this same exact question on the other MB forums as well. Thanks.

Sounds like a con to me, I have never heard of someone charging to take photos of parts. Some people just try it on to see what they can get - keep away.

$35 per hour to take pictures of parts they are selling is outrageous, $25 per hour is a much more reasonable rate.....


Seriously, I've never heard of it nor would I ever imagine anyone would request payment to take pics of items THEY ARE TRYING TO SELL. Did you find this person on Craig's list?

It is extremely important that I learn ASAP the engine serial number of the above s550--it will help me determine if the car has a balance shaft issue.

many thanks HDB/ipswich77

NEVER heard of that in my life, either a nut job or a scam.
