eBay Cheats & Copyright Thieves

wiolka_29 in eBay Copyright Theft
wiolka_29 of Southend on Sea, Essex, United Kingdom stole our Ary 1oz Gold Bar Reverse Photographs to use on eBay, without our permission, to try sell his own Bar, and failed to mention the Bar in the photograph was not one the Bar he owned, if any. Totally dishonest.
Image theft is endemic on eBay, and most sellers appear not to care whether their buyers are deceived.

High eBay Feedback is No Guarantee of Integrity or Honesty
When we wrote this page, this eBay member's feedback was 228, with 100% positive, according to eBay.

eBay Copyright Thieves
Many eBay vendors use our Bar photographs to sell inferior quality Bars on eBay. These eBay members are dishonest and should be avoided.
We believe eBay profits from IP rights infringements (copyright theft), and does so knowingly, only removing infringing items reluctantly, if at all.

Here for sale is 20 gram pure gold (24 Carat)
999.9 purity fine gold.
The best money can buy
This bar was purchased as investment, though small but still good value.

Would be a nice present for someone's future, buy the only thing that decides the ups and downs of market, money can devalue with time but precious metal like gold holds very bright and always goes up with the exception of few times in the history.
Would prefer hassle free collection, cash payment.
Can also deliver within 20 miles radius by charging £1 per mile on petrol from slough.
Could also arrange delivery by first class recorded, so if you are buying in person would knock off the postage charges.
All, Happy new year and wish me the same by not contacting me with silly offers or by wasting my time.Also, No buyers from Nigeria, can entertain buyers from europe and US.
send me any sensible question you might have.

What's Wrong?
We invest a great deal of time, effort, and cost into creating some of the best photographic Bar and gold Bar images on the internet. We strongly object when lazy and dishonest people decide to use them without a by your leave or thanks, doing so in competition with us.
Copyright theft is dishonest. We recommend you avoid doing business with dishonest dealers.
It is always possible, even likely, that sellers who steal photographs do not own a similar Bar, and have the intention to totally defraud potential buyers.
The vendor is not only cheating us by stealing our copyright images, he is fraudulently or ignorantly misleading and deceiving all potential buyers. Gaining pecuniary advantage by deception is the definition of fraud.

Price
The seller was asking for a Buy It Now price of £690.00.
Even without after eBay's greedy 10% selling fees, and possible PayPal charges, the seller would almost certainly have been much better off selling the Bars to us, instead of stealing our photographs.

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.

Copyright Thieves on eBay
We already have a page naming and shaming dealers using our images without permission. It's time we did the same for eBay, although if we include them all, this could be a very long page.
