*AGAIN!* Someone stole my pic and it's on eBay NOW! What do I do!?

[relcelestia]

EDIT:
so the same seller, (lilostitchtoys) relisted the item (PE fork) and it still has my pic!!
WTF?!
Apparently eBay isn't doing anything about it
I reported it again...
Not cool

____________________________________

I just discovered my pic being used in a current eBay auction 

is there anything I can do to report it??


[moving to TS ~ thank you ~ hathorcat]

The nerve of some people! I bed that their pony is really ugly and use a picture of a nice pony.
Maybe you can contact ebay about it. Send them a e-mail. I am sorry I  only buy on ebay so I am not much of a help 
Hope you can disolve it!

[Rika_of_Thunder]

Ugh, some people D|

There's a report button on the far right side of the top of the description bar~

However if ebay doesn't remove it promptly, I'd contact the seller.

[relcelestia]

thank you so much!!
I reported it!!
It's actually a pony accessory so they prolly thought no one would notice,
heck, I've actually been watching the item for 6 days (to see if it would sell as high as mine did) and I didn't even notice!!

Ugh, some people D|

I ll move this over to TS for you as you ll probably get the best advise there! Good luck getting it resolved...the cheeky seller stealing your image!

[Gingerbread]

I would report it via the button and also maybe phone eBay customer services? I think eBay can get in a lot of trouble for that as well as the seller who stole the photo so they should remove it fairly promptly. I would also double check the sellers previous listings and see if they stole any more of your pics.

Let us know who the seller is, too, so I can mark them down that they steal photos for auctions!

Totally this.

How rude! This kind of thing happens to you too frequently relcelestia, it's because you take such awesome photos. 

http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/image-text.html Here is the policy.
http://ocs.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ContactCS&domain=Help&query=How%20do%20I%20report%20a%20listing%20violation?&from=1459877 This should be the report page.

Sorry this has happened to you.  Ebay will remove it, they don't mess around when it comes to image and text theft.
 
I actually had to add the link to the rules about it to my listings because it seemed like it was happening every other day to me.  They either used my pictures or copied my template word for word to their listing.
 
But I am also curious who the seller is because the last time I reported someone it was for stealing one of my accessory photos.

[babystarz]

I've had people lift text from my auctions before (sizable chunks), and eBay was really quick about shutting down those auctions for plagiarism when I reported it using the link to do so attached to that auction.

[Ringlets]

Glad to hear you reported it   its so annoying when someone steals your pics or text. I've had it happen to me too     
Thankfully Ebay will normally remove the listing very quickly once you've reported the item

[relcelestia]

The seller was lilostitchtoys
the auction is ended now and I think it sold for like $7
and mine sold for $78
so that makes me feel better lolol!!
I'm glad to hear that eBay is so strict about it,
I'll keep u all posted!
Thank you all for the support and love! ^_^

[ponylady]

I looked at her completed listings:

I am just curious are any of her other accessory pictures yours?

[relcelestia]

Hi! Nope it was just the one item, the PE fork

how are you able to see completed listings?
