Even if he did copy this picture off your website, you have no copyrights to

I thought it was a photo of a set box that we were discussing.

Nope.  It was a photo of the assembled set, sitting in/next to the box, on the
person's dining room table.

The photo on the offending auction has been changed (possibly because the
seller of the original auction complained to eBay?), and the original auction
has been ended and the link to the photo is broken.  That's probably where
Scott's confusion originated.

(...) Thanks for the clarification. Even LESS covered by Lego copyright and even MORE covered by the copyright asserted by the person who took the photo. ++Lar (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

Of course, if you ARE a good IP or copyright lawyer, feel free to carry on. (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
