Ebay image trick

[Barrykgerdes]

Have you ever wanted a closer look at an image displayed for goods for sale on ebay. If the original image uploaded was larger than 640 x 640 pictures there is a way to recover it.

Click on the item to display the entry and look at the enlargement. Right click on the picture. Click on view selection source. and look for the url. It looks something like this the http://1.ebayimg.com is the key to look for and finishes as _12.jpg.

http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NzQ0WDEwMjQ=/$(KGrHqJ,!jIE697,gMJIBPep-uGbL!~~60_12.JPG

Copy this into the address bar and change the number before the .jpg to 10

http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NzQ0WDEwMjQ=/$(KGrHqJ,!jIE697,gMJIBPep-uGbL!~~60_10.JPG

look at this url and you will see the picture that the seller has uploaded.

I was shown this today and it can be great to see fine detail if it is in the original photo

Sorry, but can't help it!

You don't need to see those images.
Those are not the images you are looking for.
You can go about buying it now.

The same can be done with Flickr. Or, any other site.
