As if the seller doesn't come off as a moron for calling it a "skin", he calls that below average stuff AAAAA. It's not ugly, but pretty much any one of the suppliers has better stuff than that that they aren't even calling AAAA.

Don't you all know what skins are?. Don't worry, I speak ebonics, I'll translate:

You iz bidding on uh set o' fine Quilted Sapele guitar skins.

These iz build thickness, sanded both sides. Measurments are:
Backs 22+x 8 15/16x .135.
Sides 35x 5 1/2x .100

I stand behind theses 100%. You iz going ta love dem an' make one fine guitar. Buy dis here set while it iz still around.

The picture o' finished wood iz da end o' da billet, sanded wiff some finish on it fo' pictures. Your skins iz just sanded. More pictures available upon request.

These skins iz cut from da same log. Set 6, slice 11 an' 12 from da billet.

Payment methods accepted iz paypal, money orders, personal check, cash. Personal checks mus' clear 'bfoe shipping. Unit will ship within 24 hours o' payment. Payment iz expected within 10 days. Thank ya fo' yo' interest. what 'chew trippin foo'

For future reference:
Ebonics translator
