Default I <3 eBay Sellers Who Steal Pictures

So, I was browsing eBay for some rarer parts (with vague search queries) and came across an image-jacker....

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...67280

"Below are all customer cars!!!"



Really, because that's my car, and I have sure as hell never taken it to any shop in California .... I purchased that lip from JDMShit and installed it myself ... like two years ago. I don't even have it anymore ...

These are most likely stolen as well:





They also stole ABS Dynamic's lip picture (of an ABS Mugen Lip) for their ad selling a urethane lip.



So if you recognize the cars, please, PM/IM/Email their owners and let them know.

Here's the CnD I sent them:

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Hello,

Please remove the picture of my vehicle, or your ad will be reported to eBay as one that violates their terms of service.

This is the photograph in question:

This photograph is my intellectual property, and may not be used without appropriate consent.</TD></TR></TABLE>

Dude, you totally have 100% reason to get upset. Your car is, like, so unique, like, I can't believe they would do that.

Go away.

It's my intellectual property being used without my consent. It has nothing to do with how "unique" my car is/was. He was even too lazy to remove my border and watermark, or even use a decent picture.

H-T douchebags are so retarded. If the first person replying to this thread had said "how shitty of that seller!" then everybody would be on the OP's side. Instead, you guys think you're cool to bash him.

Really, like giving advice on honda-tech, right?

OP, you have every right to be upset about it, and the seller has no right to put that on his auction

thats why you have to sell stuff that's so rare, that the chances of your picture getting stolen are slim to none.....

I'd be like "if you want to use my photo, I demand 10% of every sale that you make with my photo in the listing"

actually, the first post was agreeing with him. it is shitty for someone to use other people's photos as their own.

people are just joking around. if you don't like it, leave. in the meantime, shut up.

how dare I stick up for anyone. How and why does that affect you? How about if posters that are "joking" (you and I both know they're not) are pissed off then they can leave. I'm not going anywhere, and I'm not shutting up, so suck my ***** toughguy

this is dumb. does anyone not understand the concept here? the ebay seller is selling a product that either doesnt fit or he is scamming people so he stole pictures to make money of what he isnt selling....so why is everyone fighting about it? on a side note, this reminds me of when some ******* on myspace tried to be me and saw he owned my car by copying my myspace into his...down to every last work and picture. he even messaged me asking for my color layout code. ***** gay

I hate ebay, everything is a lie and the chances of getting ripped off is so high.

I just got douched on by someone selling a Razr V3 because they used someone elses photo. The guy had all positive feedback for some reason... I recieved the phone two weeks later after I paid for 2 day shipping. The phone was also a bootleg and the screen was fuzzy and the battery didn't even fit.

EBAY SUCKS
