danny_vanderschelden in eBay Copyright Theft
Many eBay sellers, including dealers steal our copyright images, we suspect some of them may also be fraudsters. Does eBay care?
danny_vanderschelden of vernonia, Oregon, United States, stole our gold PAMP Suisse bar photograph instead of using his own.

High eBay Feedback is No Guarantee of Integrity
When we wrote this page, this eBay member's feedback was 86; with 100% positive according to eBay.

Sample Listing:

Pamp Suisse 2.5 Gram Pure Gold Bar. Assay Card Included
You are bidding on a....
2.5 Gram Pamp Suisse Pure Gold Bar
Includes assay card
The bar is in mint condition
Gold is hitting all time highs over and over again
This could be an investment of a life time (sic).

What's Wrong?
We invest a great deal of time, effort, and cost into creating some of the best photographic coin images on the internet. We strongly object when other lazy and dishonest dealers decide to use them without a by your leave or thanks, and pass them off as their own work, doing so in competition with us.
Copyright theft is dishonest. We recommend you avoid doing business with dishonest dealers and individuals.
It would be an improvement eBay published statistics on how many copyright infringement reports a member had attracted, or allowed IP rights owners the right to allocate a negative for copyright theft.

Price
The seller was asking a starting price of $0.99.
He would probably get more by spendng it when eBay's new 10% selling fees are taken into account, even ignoring PayPal fees.

eBay Guilty of Negligence or Complicity
We will be reporting this example of copyright abuse using our standard Statutory Declaration via the eBay VeRO programme, and wait to see if they chose to action or ignore our report. We look forward to taking legal action against eBay for their negligence and / or complicity if they fail to take down the offending material promptly.
