    That is Low i would be sending a message to that fella, he at least blanked out your plates
    you didnt give permission for anyone to use the photo but these days you would also have to prove its your Rig at least the photo doesnt give a good view of ya shed , He even states its not the actual bar and lights you are bidding on.
    Down the bottom of most ebay stuff is report this seller tab I dunno whether its worth it or not. Handily he also gives us his mobile number if you want to take that option as well..............

      Re: some CLOWN is using my rig

      I thought I recognised the picture on ebay, He has now changed it and made a apology, But now he has another prado showing the number plate and all. But yet again stating it's not the actual bullbar and picture is on to show what the bullbar looks like. He would be better off not putting a picture up at all at the moment.

                Well car yards advertise cars in the paper with small print saying the car in photo is not the actual car photo is for illistrational purposes only but taking a photo with out permission is a bit below the belt .

                  despite apologizing to you and stating it on the ebay page, he's an even bigger clown for pinching ARB's pic afterwards. They've paid very good money for their images and the photographer has most likely given them a limited usage deal. Regardless, the photographer still owns the copyright and the seller could end up getting in more trouble then he's likely to just pinching your shot.

                  The odd thing about all this is, if he just went into the street, snapped the first Prado with an ARB bar, blocked out the plates and used that, he'd be fine - he owns the copyright and there are no laws against taking photos of someone's property in a public place (as long as the owner of the property aren't identified in the shot).

                  All comes down to someone simply being too lazy.

                  Hmmm, did he pinch the shot from PP (via photobucket) or elsewhere?

                      You can report copyright infringements to eBay AND they action it. First of all, they will remove the listing.
                      Then they email both parties and leave them to work it out, if nothing is mutual, it will not be able to be relisted.

                      Good on you to the "3" people who dobbed this guy in, obviously has no regard for copyright.

                        Better still, take a photo of the actual bar and put up from the start or maybe he doesn’t even have the bar.

                        I wonder if he is a PPer?

                          I'm assuming he thought he'd better advertise it if he had a shot of the same bar on a nice stunning vehicle - so he picked Joey's...

                          If he is a PPer I doubt he's likely to own up on this thread
                          & if so, it should be in the classifieds..

                              Joey I actually saw this ad on eBay yesterday and realised it wasnt your advert, but your rig. Somewhere afterthis I got distracted and never got to send you a PM.. I would think the photo may have come from here somewhere since I dont think he took his own shot from NSW... :?:
