There's a popular saying in hindi "Jo dikhta hai wo hi bikta hai" means what is seen is sold. After analyzing the Pictures of their listings they found that they were of mediocre quality and some even blurry and pixelated. That time The listing owners didn't had great camera quality smartphones to upload high resolution images of the rooms, And Due to this their potential customers didn't liked what they were paying for and backed off.
