Photographs and condition
Capture the visible details in photos of front and back labels, capsule, closure, fill level, bottle base, case and accessories. Show both the readable detail and its position on the item.
Make any wear clear by photographing fill level, capsule, closure, labels, glass and original case. Show wear in context and include a closer image of any serious damage.
