Explain this - Ruth Panoramic Photo
 
This photo has been sold by this seller 2 times, and now it is for sale a 3rd time. Feedback left by the seller for both buyers, on the same day too (within minutes). So does this seller have several of these or what?

currently for sale on ebay:

also as a side note
 
when this was first listed a few weeks back since I live near the seller I asked if I could see the photo in person. They replied that they would need me to pay them $100 via paypal first to show them I was serious.

Who bids with such tiny photos in the description? I sure as hell couldn't pick "The Babe" out in that photo.

My guess, based on the letter they say is included and they actually do have multiples, is that this is a modern photo print run, perhaps commissioned by the original photographer in the early 1980's.

In case any of u are bidding today...
 
on the Sellers 3rd one they now have listed, I just got a reply from one of the buyers of the 1st 2:

"I received the photo. It is without a doubt a FAKE! Do not buy from this guy. I have opened a case through ebay, and I will sue him if I have to. I am a retired lawyer, and I have the time to do it. I am pissed off."
