    Default What's wrong with this ebay auction picture

    So I'm looking to see if it's complete and i noticed something odd.....




    You are looking at the original Nintendo Entertainment System, new, sealed. There cannnot be many left like this in the world. It has been kept in a climate controlled house for the past 5 years since I acquired the system from a friend who stored it in the same fashion. I cannot guarantee that it works, but I can guarantee that it has never been opened and has all original parts. The box and the system are in perfect condition. The original manual as well as inserts are included, perfectly intact. Two controllers, gun, and game are included. Shipping will be UPS ground unless otherwise specified by the buyer. $12.00 in the U.S. worldwide will be calculated depending on where it will be shipped. I accept paypal, check, money order, and cash, check will take time to clear. Check my feedback and bid with confidence. Thanks for looking.

    Well, that and the fact that the Styrofoam shown could never fit in that box.

    Unless of course the camera angle is wierd.

    yea, they are just placed next to each other to look like one big piece

    chalk that one up to a poor item layout or a bad picture angle
