Board game photos that prove the box is complete
Players buy used games only if the box is complete. A shelf photo cannot prove it. A flat lay of the cards, tokens and board next to the box does. Send a photo of the contents, ask for tidy groups on a plain tone, and the bot tidies the layout.

Make it in TelegramCompleteness
A buyer will compare your picture with the parts list, so count each group. If the bot adds or removes tokens, rerun with 'same number of pieces as in my photo'. Where something is missing, say so in the text and show the gap honestly. Sort the pieces into small bags or trays before you take the source photo, because tidy groups are easier to count and to check later.
Box condition
Photograph the front, the back, the sides and the corners separately, and keep dents and tears visible. Mention smoke or pet free status only if it is true. Read eBay's current listing rules for games before publishing, and add an untouched picture of the whole layout so the buyer can check the original. Add the number of players and the year of the edition from the box, which helps collectors match your copy to their wish list.
Tips
- Check the parts list from the rulebook.
- Photograph box corners and the lid edge.
- Show the rulebook cover and the card backs.
- Say whether the plastic is sealed.

- Does not write listing copy, set prices or upload anything to your seller account.

- Text on infographics is drawn by AI and can have letter errors in long phrases. Keep badges short and proofread.
