JohnnyW Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Was doing my weekly scower for Supra parts on ebay and looked at one of the thumbnail pics and thought "that looks a lot like my car....." sure enough it was one of the pics I put up last week: http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=158332 Not sure whether to be annoyed or flattered, I suppose at they've at least blanked out the plate on it. Would have been nice to have been asked though since it was obviously someone from on here. Here is the offending item: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Toyota-Supra-Active-Front-Spoiler-ECU-motor-switch_W0QQitemZ140255785630QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item140255785630&_trkparms=72%3A984|39%3A1|66%3A2|65%3A12&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14.l1318 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pot Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 scotspower Same guy? I've not put anything up on eBay for a long time, but aren't the auctions usually for a week?... If so then : End time:13-Aug-08 10:09:32 BST (6 days 14 hours) And his last online time (on here) : Last Activity: Today 09:51 Would indicate so... Of course, it may or may not be him/her, and at least your plate's been blanked out, but it would at least have been nice to have been asked first... (Nice car by the way ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pot Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Supersluth Stu Check me out - I have to give all credit to Mr Nic though, as hopefully if he gets a buzz off the glory, he'll send me some free stuff... lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 It is cheeky, but there is nothing stopping him taking a pic of your car if he saw it on the street and using that on ebay really. Something about intellectual property I think, as long as the pic is either used for review or criticism. Not too sure, but maybe just drop him a email to ask him to remove it if you don't like it on there. I know I wouldn't like my car being on the net like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyW Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 Now that a bit of time has passed I'm not too fussed about it, would have been nice to have been asked but I suppose there's no harm being done. Was just a bit shocked to see my car on the ebay listings! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
