Seller using my pictures on ebay- buyer beware..

Just noticed that- I have no idea why they would use pictures of my items to sell their own (especially not my Leia that isn't in great shape!) but regardless that is my figure and the picture was probably found on a google search or something.

Buyer beware if you are looking for one..you won't get what you are seeing in the pic :roll:

I saw that one and was tempted. What a strange thing to do. I noticed the scammer on RS yesterday, maybe its a similar deal with this one ?

Sellers feedback doesn't fill you with confidence

Im sure you have already reported it Joe but just to let you know that I have also. These guys do my suede in. :evil:

I guess he just thought my figure looked similar to his or something?

God knows, anyways he has a nice ebay message with a request to take it down

Thanks Chris! Hopefully just laziness rather than anything dodgy!

Someone did this to me recently. My pictures are always super clear with a perfect white back-gound. I try to make them look as good as possible as i sell things that others sell so i want mine to stand out. Unfortunately it's quite a common practice. People think well i'm selling the same thing so may as well use their picture. But when you put a lot of effort and thought into it it really grates!
I think i'm gonna watermark mine from next year to prevent it happening. If anyone wants me to do this to their pics i can do it for you. It takes 2 minutes.

I don't understand why anyone would do this unless they are samming or just plain lazy.

I might send him a message saying I'll pay double if he can supply a pic :lol:
