My understanding is that the only person who can report stolen photos, is the seller from whom they were stolen.

I've just contacted the seller of the 05 City. Hopefully, she will be able to put a stop to this.

Watermarking is not fool-proof, but it does seem to deter this kind of thing to some degree.

Not any more.. there is now an option in reporting to report photos stolen from another listing or website! Just post the ebay listing in description when reporting. Report as COPY OF YOUR LISTING, but then gives the option of YOUR listing or photos from other website or ebay user.

The legitimate seller has reported the stolen photos. I've phoned and gotten an ebay rep to report the three listings, and I've reported them as well. I can't imagine that this seller would do something so blatant. The ebay rep also thought it very odd. It's looking more like an account hijacking than anything else.

Now I'm wondering if the buyers should be contacted. I think they will be protected, once ebay pulls the listings....:confused1:

sorry conni, could not get website to respond. Hope buyers know what it means if/when listings are removed.

I've e-mail from the seller again
"Be careful of your accusations, both bags are mine. Both previous
buyers thought I was selling the larger size, not the classique. "

Well that is a strange comment from someone whose photos were stolen and being used to sell the same bag over and over again..?? You contacted Seller Orchids?
Per flosspatrol completed listings, same bag (same photos) has sold twice and currents bids agian on same bag. Maybe ebay can sort this out...??

Well duh, then why doesn't she put the dimensions and/or the name of the bag she is selling? Or take another picture, or remove the city picture?Very fishy.

I contacted her, and she reported the stolen photo. The second seller can't seriously think that it's okay to keep using the wrong photo to sell a different bag? If it happens once, and she needed to relist, why continue twice more to post the same exact listing?
 
Thanks for everyone's support. I think I just took it hard because my listing has never been pulled before. I can't list anything now for 90 days :( I did include pics of all the tags etc. although admittedly my camera was a bit shaky. And I did notice that it had been given the thumbs down from at least one tpfer hence why I wanted to post here:

Total fake - do not buy!!!!!!Check the tag bad font, C tag - it's definitely not real.

Oh well, I will try posting again through my buyers account!
 
Can you post the pictures here again ? If there has been a mistake on my part, I certainly apologize. Can you give the post #'s and when this happened? ?

nope, it's from flosspatrol

sorry for the confusion
 
LADIES, TAKE A BETTER LOOK AT BOTH PICS. NOTICE THE SLIGHT DIFFERENCE? I THINK WE WERE WRONG! :nuts:

You may be right... flosspatrol inner bag photo varies slightly from that of orchids. HOWEVER, that fact remains that the flosspatrol black bbag was sold on the 30th, 31st, and is again listed w/ bids. Same photos, same bag. diff buyers...?? So what's up w/ that??
