I see listings with no description all the time.  Of course, this guy also has the generic, only-mostly accurate description.  I've seen that one many times as well, however both together paint a pretty poor picture, for sure.

Are you kidding?

I have seen "old IBM keyboard" with no further discussion AND no picture.

When I asked a question, they said that it said "Model M" on the back, and posted the question to the listing. Obviously somebody else saw the question and answer, and topped my bid of $5-10 and won it at that price.

A photo of the front would have at least doubled the bid, and a photo of the back might well have tripled it.

“These economic royalists complain that we seek to overthrow the institutions of America. What they really complain of is that we seek to take away their power."
He paused for a moment, then thundered, “Our allegiance to American institutions requires the overthrow of this kind of power!”
“In vain,” Roosevelt said, “they seek to hide behind the Flag and the Constitution. In their blindness they forget what the Flag and the Constitution stand for. Now, as always, they stand for democracy, not tyranny; for freedom, not subjection; and against a dictatorship by mob rule and the over-privileged alike.”
- Franklin Roosevelt 1933
