Default Possible Ebay problem. What should I do.....need some advice.

Not sure where to post this so feel free to move.

A fellow Honda-Tech member pointed out to me that a picture of my engine that I posted about a week ago on H-T is on ebay. This person has a engine for sale but is showing my engine. What should I do, ask him to take it down, or just leave it. The reason I am unsure is because it is kinda like false advertisment because that is not his engine. Here is a link.

Thank you to civic.com.hk for pointing this out.

best you could do is email him i guess, tell him to either take your picture down or to note that the engine pictured is not the actual engine.

If he refuses, report him to ebay.

good luck will.

If you'll notice the sellers name "fstasstang"<---probably drives a mustang, he thinks he's pulling a good prank. What a jackass, and they wonder why we hate mustangs. Good luck man

eh, I don't really hate Mustangs as much as I hate owners that like to diss other categories of car enthusiasts, which he sounds like he's doing.
