What was the OP question?

There wasn't one..

OK - good to know - was trying to read through it all, but apart from getting a little confused, I became increasingly bored, 😄

Not that it has anything to do with the original OP (whatever that was lol) but another way scammers can get away with changing a listing is to have the whole page as a jpeg or gif which is remotely hosted, all they have to do is replace the pic using the same file name and nobody can see what it said originally.
