<p>[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 608606, member: 12965"]The problem I have with Ebay and stolen pics is the rules clearly state that the pics must be of the actual coin for sale so that rule stipulates stock photos cannot be used so when someone steals a photo, that alone violates the stock photo rule but Ebay won't pull the auction unless the owner of the photo complains and if the photo is stolen from an outfit like Heritage, they make Heritage jump through hoops to get it removed. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p> </p><p>Ebay invites fraud but you have to understand, fraud makes Ebay a lot of money so why wouldn't they encourage fraud? :goof: That's why it's so important to educate yourself before buying anything on Ebay and the education isn't just about the items you are buying, it's also about Ebay and what to watch out for to keep from ending up being a victim of fraud. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p> </p><p>I would report the pic thief but Ebay won't do anything about it so only the owner can get Ebay to do something about it and even then, it's difficult to get them to do anything. :whistle: Ebay has structured itself in such a way that no one knows what they are doing, so it's rare to get the appropriate response from them. :goofer:</p><p> </p><p>Ribbit <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
