Pro Tips for Effective Comparison
Use Multiple Listing Photos
Don't just rely on the main image. Sellers often upload photos from multiple angles, close-ups of details, and shots of tags/packaging. Cross-reference all available images.
Check the Description Text
Sometimes the discrepancy is in specifications (e.g., "200ml" vs. "250ml"). Read the product description and specifications carefully.
Mind the Lighting
Warehouse lighting can alter color perception. Focus on comparing patterns, logos, and design features that are not color-dependent.
Ask for Specific Photos
If a critical detail is unclear, don't hesitate to request an additional close-up photo from your agent.
