Not much information as to what you get. Might be a non wastegated turbo. Might not. I sometimes wonder how sellers expect to sell something with very little info or no pics.

Very true, but this has led to the best deals for me. Most people don't bother contacting the seller without pics or much of a description, so when I contact an ad that is a few weeks old, the seller thinks their price has been too high and are much more open to negotiating

Very true. More often than not it is junk, but it's not uncommon to find gems.

For instance the flatbed trailer I have was described along the lines of "old steel ugly flatbed trailer - $750"..... turned out to be a pretty nice older Zieman 14k steel deck equipment trailer that's worth probably 3-4 times what I paid.
