Hi all

So I'm eying the Denon D9200 for quite some time now, I created an alarm via eBay that sends me new listings that rank on Denon D9200 from the headphones category.
I paid attention that they all share the same images of the headphone, all showing the same defects.
Is this a known scam?
To me those are the possible options:
1. It's the same person behind all those different seller accounts, creating more traffic to his listing
2. Those are different sellers but they are too lazy to shoot and upload their own images
3. Doesn't matter if it's the same seller or different ones, but it's a scam

What do you think?

Here are some listings grouped by image type. There are more listings with another image type but this should be good enough to understand the issue....

I only looked at a few but they all claim to be from Japan.

My guess is same seller/company under different accounts, or maybe they drop ship from a central warehouse like AliExpress does, so the seller isn't the same, but the item is.

I think there are D9200s cheaper here on HeadFi, at least in the US.
