That's the reason I didn't buy from him - his pictures didn't match his description. Although... he said his tubes were Svets and the EV version, I was suspicious that they weren't, because of this disparity.
It's possible that he just uses "generic" pictures to cover several tubes - and that he actually has the tubes you want. On the other hand... he may just be relying on uniformed buyers to sell what he has - reasoning they won't care about the difference. In either case - I refused to accept that risk.
