Take a look at ebay auction: 433145182 7140 x-wing ending 9/16


Hey, at least this seller did not copy the part of your listing where you talk
about how lazy seller's steal your description.

I had a problem like this many months ago when I wrote a "fun" description for
my 6038 Wolfpack Renegades and 7850 4.5V straight track auctions.  Some other
seller that had the same items copied wholesale (pardon the pun ;-) my
descriptions.  After a short note to ebay listing the pertinent auction
numbers and giving a brief desription of the problem, the other auctions
disappeared.  I am not sure if ebay cancelled the auctions or if the seller
cancelled them after being warned.the other seller and their now bland, poorly-
written descriptions drawing
lower prices than my auctions!

Send a note to ebay.  Copying your text, even if you didn't bother with the
(c) mark is still a violation of the ebay terms of service.

Plus, it is fun to watch the thieves squirm!


I took great pleausure seeing the items relisted shortly after this event by

Will

P.S.  I like your descriptions.  They are fresh, and you should not let the
pirates benefit from the product of your labor by stealing your work.

Intellectual property theft is a form of slavery!
