The one on that site are Type AB, which are as the heading states are typically for sheet metal. For plastics, screws typically have a larger relative pitch and sharper, deeper, narrower at the root thread form. “ 30degree flank angle” rather than standard 60. Ideally you want that style even if you cannot match the exact pitch. Have you got a ruler and a vernier? Look on Kayfast website, but only imperial sizes or on EBay for a metric selection box?
 
I have ordered a vermiere but not sure how i can use it for this. Can you show search results example on ebay?

The 8 large pictures of the screws are obviously LH thread, but it may be a photo posting issue by the seller, they may have reversed the photo.
But it's clear as day they appear to be LH thread.

Just visualise screwing any of the 8 large photos in, they would have to be turned anticlock

Don’t panic Stan… even Screwfix sometimes use reversed photos. The screws themselves will be the right way round.
