<p>[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 563972, member: 12965"]Heresay is when I say someone did something without tangible proof but when I can point to physical proof and show that the pics are identical, hence, "borrowed" or "stolen", it's no longer heresay, it's a FACT! I reported a boat load of Chinese sellers that "borrowed" pics from various sources on Ebay and it was without a doubt the same pics, used by each seller (possibly a joint effort or the same person with several usernames) and Ebay wouldn't pull them and gave me a lame excuse that the seller may have given them permission to use their pics. :goof: Ebay's rules are clear, the pic must be of the actual coin so when someone presents absolute proof that a pic is stolen, Ebay should remove the fraudulent auction and I call it a fraudulent auction because the pic being used on the OP auction isn't a copper in "fair" condition and peeps judge by pics, not words, so some poor smuck is going to bid that up thinking it's in better condition than it really is, hence, the rationale behind the requirement the pic must be of the actual coin for sale. </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>
