I don’t think it would work well for golf club sales either, but you never know. The risk would be alienating some buyers who don’t like that sort of marketing, vs the possible increase in sales/conversions from having it..

Maybe there exists an opportunity for the use of male models for some sellers, as the largest buyer base on eBay is female, mostly at home shoppers?

If we had enough different poses or models we may be able to retain some customers on our site for a few extra pageviews – well initially.

For now though, we would prefer not to distract some customers, or distress others.
