LOL, I've noticed that also, and I bet it is a male selling the machine, they take a photo of the backside where they think the motor is, the most important part to them. Once I emailed a seller (sometimes I just like to see what is selling on Ebay) that did that, I explained the front of the machine is what people want to see. He replied "oh, I didn't know that was important" He never added a front photo or more about the machine, it never sold for some reason. LOL
