Bicycle parts prices are becoming exorbitant! Inflation is a world-wide phenomenon these days. For that reason, maintaining cycling at high-performance has become quite a challenge. On top of that, import tax in Brazil is 60% over product price + delivery + state taxes. The only viable way to continue competing is to sell used parts to fund new replacements.
I notice that most of the sellers don't take special care to present their products on second-hand marketplaces. The result is less clicks and more people bargaining, because the photos give a bad impression. This post is an example of how basic photos can enhance a product that is... average. You don't need fancy lighting nor extremely creative scenes; a white towel and soft ambient light should solve. Then, any decent camera/smartphone is able to capture sharp photos. The last step is to upload the photos to your local marketplace (i.e. Craigslist). With basic product photography photos it's 100% sure you'll stand out.
