I had this happen to me with a book and a CD. In both instances, I entered a UPC code and pre-filled information then came up. eBay added a stock photo as the first photo, but above the photo area there was a message telling me that I couldn’t use a stock photo because my item was used. (This might lead one to wonder why they added it, then….) It was prior to me uploading any of my own photos, so I just deleted it and replaced with my own. Is it actually replacing your photo(s) or just pushing your first photo to the #2 slot? FYI, my experience was on a desktop, not through the app.
more photos, maybe more illustrative
Haven’t done this before, hopefully I did this link correctly….
This might be of interest.

Advice from a risk-adverse person:
Brainstorm everything you think of that could possibly go wrong, and how you would deal with it. For example, you/your partner/your mom gets sick/loses a job and can’t pull her financial weight for a while. Can you deal?
How does your partner feel about this? At least some of this risk will attach to her/him since he/she lives in a house that you own.
Consider the additional stress that another payment might bring you. Is that an OK possibility? Will this tie you to your day job/Ebay? Is that acceptable?
I would be concerned about going into this with no slush fund. I feel like this is akin to buying on margin, which I would probably not do (never say never). But lots of people do it every day and some of them make a lot of money.
PS – Give your mom a big hug for even entertaining the idea of living in a perpetual state of remodeling for your sake. That’s real love, for sure!
