I never bid on something without reading the item 
description. There's *SO* many times when the 
picture doesn't say it all, even ignoring this 
case where the picture has nothing to do with the 
auction. Some things I've run into are:

-- Picture shows one magazine, opening bid is 
100yen. Auction is actually for *10* magazines, 
which would have been a fortune to ship.

-- Picture showed two items. Auction is actually 
only for *one* of those two items. (The other is 
in it's own auction.)

-- Picture showed a cel in fine condition. Details
reported the (very signifigant!) damage that had 
occured to the cel after the picture was taken.

So, Japanese or English, it's really risky to bid 
without reading the details first. ;;^_^;;
