<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dave M, post: 831080, member: 17469&quot;]Doing my usual cruise through ebay this morning, I ran across <a href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&amp;campid=5335874456&amp;toolid=10001&amp;mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.com%2F5000-Francs-20-3-1947-Allegory-of-French-Colonies_W0QQitemZ150421091844QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPaper_Money%3Fhash%3Ditem2305cbb604" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?type=3&amp;campid=5335874456&amp;toolid=10001&amp;mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fcgi.ebay.com%2F5000-Francs-20-3-1947-Allegory-of-French-Colonies_W0QQitemZ150421091844QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPaper_Money%3Fhash%3Ditem2305cbb604" rel="nofollow">this </a>note for sale. With the staple rust, it looked awfully familiar, so I checked my list and found that it&#039;s the same note as mine. Same serial number, if I can read their small text correctly, and looking at the edges of the scan it appears it was lifted from Ron Wise&#039;s gallery (<a href="http://aes.iupui.edu/rwise/banknotes/france/fra103_f-donated.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://aes.iupui.edu/rwise/banknotes/france/fra103_f-donated.jpg" rel="nofollow">face</a>, <a href="http://aes.iupui.edu/rwise/banknotes/france/fra103_b-donated.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://aes.iupui.edu/rwise/banknotes/france/fra103_b-donated.jpg" rel="nofollow">back</a>). Note the little black edges at top right and bottom left from my crop job are the same in the ebay pics and the scans at Ron&#039;s gallery.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyone think I&#039;m wrong here? I suppose clicking ebays &quot;report item&quot; flag is the appropriate move here? I&#039;ve never reported anything before, so I have no idea what would happen, and don&#039;t really want to screw anyone over by making a mistaken report.</p><p><br /></p><p>Dave</p><p><br /></p><p>On second look through the rest of this seller&#039;s items, two more of my banknotes are for sale: <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/500-Francs-1946-Chateaubriand-musical-instrument_W0QQitemZ150421092459QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPaper_Money?hash=item2305cbb86b" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/500-Francs-1946-Chateaubriand-musical-instrument_W0QQitemZ150421092459QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPaper_Money?hash=item2305cbb86b" rel="nofollow">here </a>and <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1000-Francs-1942-Ceres-Hermes-Mercury_W0QQitemZ150421091552QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPaper_Money?hash=item2305cbb4e0" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1000-Francs-1942-Ceres-Hermes-Mercury_W0QQitemZ150421091552QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPaper_Money?hash=item2305cbb4e0" rel="nofollow">here.</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
