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 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.
This particular eBay seller not only stole our 1966 gold sovereign image, he has almost certainly deluded himself that his coin is identical condition to the one in our photograph. It's possible he is ignorant of such fine points as grading, or that his coin may or may not be in mint condition, as implied by the use of our photograph of a selected mint state specimen.
It is always possible, even likely, that sellers who steal photographs do not own a similar, and have the intention to defraud potential buyers.
The vendor is not only cheating us by stealing our copyright images, she is fraudulently or ignorantly misleading and deceiving all potential buyers. Gaining pecuniary advantage by deception is the definition of fraud.

Vendor
It is rather laughable that the eBay name this vendor has chosen is "wesellonlyoriginalandlicensed" suggesting "We Sell Only Original and Licensed" goods, when we manage to catch him red-handed stealing our images.
Via Piave 50/8
70031 Andria, BA
Italia

Price
The seller started the auction at &euro1, and it had reached a price of €137, but the vendor ended the auction early "Il venditore ha chiuso l'inserzione prima del previsto e ha annullato tutte le offerte."

eBay Guilty of Negligence or Complicity
We reported this example of copyright abuse using our standard Statutory Declaration via the eBay VeRO programme, and eBay have, not for the first time, chosen to ignore our report. We look forward to taking legal action against eBay for their negligence and / or complicity.

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.
