David, you are most welcome to post your items any way you like, with pics or without.
There are some interesting sounding items there at very fair prices.
All I can mention is that 9 out of 10 people who might have a casual interest in purchasing something won't bother asking for pics if none are presented, they will just skip to something else.
That's just the way it is. But as i said, it is entirely your decision, and good luck with the sale.
