Condition

In order to ensure a smooth and transparent transaction process on HardwareSwap, the seller should take photographs that accurately depict the item's overall condition. This entails capturing images of various angles, including clear shots of any serial numbers or unique identifiers associated with the item. The primary objective is to establish tangible evidence of ownership and to create a visual record that attests to the item's condition prior to shipment. In the event of a dispute, you will have clear records of the exact condition of the hardware you sold.

By doing so, trust and confidence can increase between both parties involved in the transaction. Either party can refer back to the original timestamps, if required. Timestamps are a reliable reference point throughout the transaction process, which facilitates a smoother and more secure exchange.

Additionally, high-quality photos [of exactly what you have for sale] can attract potential buyers and increase your chances of making a sale.

Below is a good guideline which shows how to properly take timestamps (please refer to the next guide link for examples):
