That's weird isn't it? Don't even get me started on the description. So anyway why would someone do that?

To prove they actually have the item to sell I think.

No it's quite normal, it's so someone doesn't steal their photo and the buyer knows its of the actual pram.

That's not weird at all, it helps deter people from stealing their pictures.

Ahh makes slightly more sense, but only if you use your seller name. How do I know she's called Claudia?

It's a way to prove copyright on the image; some sellers get very shirty about their images being reused without permission. You should never copy digital images without clear permission to reuse.

I'm very at the price. Not even a pram included!!

photo theft is not allowed on ebay - seller is just protecting their images.
