Often times the pictures are posted or provided by sellers, and they are the best you'll get. From these bad photos, experienced collectors can often make an educated guess to help out a would-be buyer. They are not intended to offend anyone.
Bad photos are often equated with slick behavior on the part of a dealer, which indeed happens. I'd wager many of the items posted here are not from dealers, however, but from obscure auction houses, online postings, and other non-dealer sources.
Many times I've asked for better photos, and often don't get them or the seller is confused why detailed photos of specific places are needed - it's just a "german cross". I'm sure the poster appreciates the help!
