80 bids on this made me look further, the same person has virtually made all the bidding. What’s that all about?

Plus the pictures are less than helpful.

There have been 10 different bidders so far. Perhaps 10 people are interested in buying it? There is a reserve in place so until that is met, none of the bidders will successful perhaps. I don't think the price reached so far is particularly high although it is hard to tell. The photos are terrible aren't they!

I sometimes wonder if people actually look at the photos that they post on ebay and forums.

I think it's because you have got the Hide/Show Automatic Bids function concealing a load of bids. If you expand the list, you'll see that there's been people trying to bid in small increments and the automatic bids has just been jumping in every time, in £2, later £5 increments.

As for idiots who post photos taken by a 3yr old, I would just not even bother with the advert. How anyone can post such images is beyond me; do they want to sell the item or not?
