The rules state that the photos must be from the same album. Can this be changed?? BECAUSE I recently saw a Spirou magazine where the photo of the back cover was missing. Now I am in possession of this copy with a damaged front cover, but a good back cover. So I add the photo of the back cover, but according to the regulations I can only do that by replacing the good photo of the front cover with my battered copy;

Sorry, but it's already in the manual, it's been well thought out.

lordernie As a user I would like to respond. Personally, I think it is desirable that the best possible photo is used with every copy listed in the catalog, both of the front and the back. If your own copy deviates from one of the two photos, you can also add your own images in the appropriate section, in order to avoid confusion. But the catalog as a whole is better if the best possible photo is used (in my opinion)

Hello, ben Etienne (67 years old architect) living in Leopoldsburg Belgium and simple collector of Suske en Wiske, have been using this beautiful and unique site for collectors since 2018, for which my sincere thanks and respect for your efforts.
As a collector I see a catalog as a "research/reference work" where I find the necessary information regarding (in my situation) the published comics by Suske en Wiske and the associated photos of the comic as it would be are offered at the time of the comic's release. A seller can (must) then add his own photos of the comic as he offers it on his site. This gives us as buyers a good idea of the condition of the offered strip. After all, there are still many sellers who rely on the photos in the catalog and only mention "good condition", bad condition".
This also gives a clear difference between the comic in the catalog as a reference and the comic on the marketplace as a sales object
Sincerely, Etienne

Thanks for the supportive call to sellers to place their own photos with the items for sale. On our marketplace it is also clearly stated that an item has its own photos. has.
As a potential buyer you can also select this using checkmark Own photos:

collector,

why put photos from the catalog with an item for sale if they are not your own photos?
Think there are still people who are fooled by that!!

or the text
These image(s) are from the LastDodo catalog and are not specific to this shop.
10 x bigger ;-)

I think the last message from lordernie has something to do with it. But it might indeed be worth considering changing that message text a bit. I thought about it for usability for all sections, then I arrive at something like (if I may) at :

The images shown here are only for reference of the item.
The actual condition of the offered item is with the seller.
?

It's off topic, but I agree with the above comments.

Catalogue photos have nothing to do with items on offer, especially not in triple format. If you still want to see them, scroll down a bit to the catalog details.

If a supplier doesn't take the trouble to take their own photos, the photos from the catalog are even DOUBLE on the page, which means increases the risk of mistakes.

So: either no images with the offer if the seller does not have their own photos, or put a large "catalog photo" over the image.

I think it's a great idea from lordenie. As it is now, too much 'noise' is created.
But not too complicated, should be clear at a glance!
So no photo of your own, therefore no photo.
The catalog photos are present anyway.
