umm ok so i messaged them and this is what i said:

Dear bitless,

This is my picture
I have already reported you and let other collectors know about your other stolen pics as well
Please do not take something that's not yours to make money

and this is the response:

I'd be asking her if hers is a rare argentinian bluebelle, because if it isn't you're in for a not as described case!

[prettypony55]

I just sent her a message asking which variation of Bluebelle does she have? And, what is written on the bottom of her hoofs. I will reply here if she ever answears me. I hope this helps.

[Stormness_1]

She has replaced some of the photos... no wonder she was stealing pics, she can't take photos at all!

[Ringlets]

Ugh! this person!!...   stealing pics and then having no remorse at all and trying to justify herlf?/himself??      that makes me so mad!  Part of me hopes that she does run into trouble with that  Bluebelle ...
I'm glad to hear that she/he has been reported and that this person is  (sortof) replacing the pics

Just glad I noticed and didn't buy baby Meadowsweet, thinking I was getting the one in photo.

I just got this email from her -

hi, I have bluebelle in my hand as we speak, im not quite sure what you mean by variaition? her hoof says made in, hong kong, pat pend, hasbro 1982, if that helps, she is in original condition, no mane/tail replacement or sorts

Then this one right after -

hi again, it just gathered in my mind you may have been talking about where the pony was sold in relation to variation, all my ponies are orignal and UK versions,


I replied with this -

HI there! Thank you for getting back to me about Bluebelle. The reason I asked is that the picture you have is of a rare Bluebell made in Argentina. There are many differnet countries that made My Little Ponies. Some are very rare, and hard to find. The actual one you have in hand is very common, and does not match your pictrues. Also, the collector ponies, Bluebelle, Cotton Candy etc.. have differnt feet molds too. They are either concave or flat footed. This also makes a difference too. I really wanted to buy this auction of yours, but since you do not have the pony pictured I will not. I would reccommend you mention this in your auction. You wouldnt wnat someone to bid on the pony pictured, then actually getting the regular hong kong, pony you have. Thanks so mcuh ro your replys!!

ok i just got this email, sent about 20 hours ago:

Dear rel22girraffe,

hi, i have revised all ponies with my own pictures, they were a temp as I needed a quick picture but didn't get a chance to upload, the images I cannot remove on bidded ponies I have added my own pictures to, I never claimed these images nor said these were my ponies in the picture, but I am selling the pony described on the listing, sorry for any incovience.

- bitless

yet my pic is STILL there!! 

[Stormness_1]

your picture has been changed now! I can't see her auctions anymore except what was on my watch list, I'd say she's hidden them? I don't know how they do that as I'm not an ebay seller myself. The only one that I can see that hasn't changed is Baby Susie. And NOWHERE on her listings does she state that it's a stock photo, and not an actual photo of her listed ponies, which is fraud, and I reported her saying I thought her auctions were fraudulent! Ebay would be going nutso on her right about now, which is probly why she started changing photos!

[elish2]

wow that stinks. I had someone who bought a pony from me turn around and use my listing picture to try and sell it at a higher price... I also bought from a seller who I found out later was using other peoples pictures when she sent me a MIB that had the box all destroyed.  I was looking for a replacement and found that the seller was stealing pictures...

GRRR...
