Question about someone using a picture of mine on eBay to sell his own figure...

[lcummins]

How do we know that about any auction?

Well we don't, but the chance for fraud with a "custom" figure seems much higher than a mass-produced one.

It was a rhetorical question.

I am not completely certain, but if memory serves, unless you take steps to protect it, once it is posted in a public forum...you lose the rights to it.

Edit - If somebody used a picture that I posted, I would be flattered.

LChinoz, is your Amanda Bynes avatar from a movie?

How did you find the auction with your picture in it....? I was just curious just in case it might happen to others.

I want to know this too, but I"m guessing he just did a search for MJ figures.

In my case I have certain Ebay searches on RSS feed and I check them every day, suddenly in one I found this pic of mine:

I contacted the seller immediately, and he took it down.

At least he has great taste in pictures.

I looked at an auction that I didn't win, and there was my picture in the "related items" section. It was totally by chance.
