They expect us to be swayed by a stock photo of a laboratory? https://www.americanturmeric.com/how-we-test-our-turmeric https://www.americanturmeric.com/how-we-test-our-turmeric ("Laboratory Results - Buy With Confidence") https://www.dreamstime.com/stock-image-laboratory-image24729171 https://www.dreamstime.com/stock-image-laboratory-image24729...

  It's a stock photo used on a website, did you expect them to go to the actual laboratory they worked with and take one? I have no affiliation here, but they even listed the company they used for testing so presumably you could call/email them if you want further confirmation. None of this seems unreasonable to me, and I don't think a stock photo is a gotcha for product quality.

    There's a lack of forthrightness in publishing a stock photo without a disclaimer. "Lack of forthrightness" is an anti-signal. Stock photography on a commercial website is an anti-signal.

        > Where do you expect stock photography to be used? Only in mock-ups and design pitches? As if something's existence alone justifies its (mis)use... I'm reminded of the Invader Zim Hamstergeddon episode when the tanks arrive and one of the soldiers shouts "We've gotta use this stuff on something!"

    Many online sellers post a photo of their factories and workers as a way to demonstrate quality - ie. "look, we make out products with big expensive modern machines, not children doing it by hand". Some aliexpress sellers even post 20-30 pictures of different parts of the production process. Posting a stock photo is trying to defraud buyers who expect to see the factory it is made in.

  >They expect us to be swayed by a stock photo of a laboratory? I don't think any picture of a lab would have any meaning to me, whatsoever. Is the product legit tested? That's all that matters. I don't care what the lab looks like.
