It's not that we're concerned about the seller selling it or not, it's the person who BUYS it that we want to protect.
I see your point. But people are lazy and will try to hide something. But I guess I disagree with the mandatory part. A mandatory pic of the case back will not provide us protection from a torn up strap or messed up movement. I think the buyer has to take on the responsibility of protecting themselves. Buy the seller first and the watch second. I pay attention to the sellers feedback, post quality and quantity, pics and how they respond to my PM's. If everything checks then I buy. We as buyers have the upper hand. If the seller doesn't want to accommodate me then they can keep their POS. Their will always be a better deal tomorrow.
