I've been seeing a lot of bad pictures lately but when I saw this one I really wondered. This auction ends in under a week. If you can guess what they are selling then you get a gold star!
I have not linked the picture from the auction so I don't think there is anything identifying this seller.
Let the guessing begin!

A pair of jeans.
Either that or the Monolith from 2001 A Space Odyssey.

I cheated. I lightened it in my picture program so now I know what it is.
But I won't tell.

I've dne some playing with the image and they look like a pair of black jeans. Maybe levis.

I give up!
But I bet when the seller looks at the picture it is not dark like that. I have had times when my picture will look fine on my computer and my husband's but dark on a friend's.

Got it!
It's a picture from the X-Files.
Muldar and Scully are right. They REALLY are out there!

We have smart people on this board! Yes you guessed it a pair of black jeans. Here is the lightened picture.
I'm going to have to find a harder one!

I thought it was a news photo of the Great Blackout of 1974 and was ready to bid on it until you guys let the cat out of the bag.

Actually I like pix like that - I can lighten it up and know what's offered, but most others simply back out, so I'm one of the few bidders!! Yes I like stupid sellers like that.

I'm looking at the original picture on a different monitor today and you can see what it is...kinda. On my home monitor it is a black hole with one shiny spot. I guess we all have to be anal when it come to our photos.

Probably worth adding that I have found that my photos, which I upload to my ISP, always look darker in my ebay descriptions.
So I make them a bit lighter when I adjust them.
