Does this 4690k look weird to you?

Long story short, trying to buy a used 4690k. Does this photo look off to any of you? The text seems printed very far left, but I'm just comparing it to my current 4690k.

 

Thanks!

I mean it's sketchy why would he take the photo in way you can't read what's written in the CPU?

@sterlingr being honest, looks sketch to me. the cpu heat spreader looks brights right around the text, meaning that it could be photo shopped. ask for a photo from directly above

i like trains 🙂

Would you buy a car without seeing the interior ? xD

 

2 options here:

 

- guy is a noob and didnt even bother how to take the picture

- guy is hiding something 

 

my 2 cents :P 

CPU: Intel i7 6700K 4.5 ghz / CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i V2 / Board: Asus Z170-A / GPU: Asus Rog Strix GTX 1070 8GB / RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4 3000 mhz / SSD: Samsung 850 Evo 500 GB / PSU: Corsair RMx 850w / Case: Fractal Design Define S / Keyboard: Corsair MX Silent / Mouse: Logitech G403 / Monitor: Dell 27" TN 1ms 1440p/144hz Gsync

Extremely sketchy, request a top image for proof of the text on the spreader. Also it is unnaturally white, that is another red flag.
