I would say something if you didn't give them permission. I mean they even watermarked the pic.

I would tell him to quit poaching pics off the net and claiming they are for his crap product - like Wes pointed out, the picture is f'in watermarked for Christs sake. Stuff like that burns my a$$.

I would just report it to eBay.

Haha, man I didn't see the water mark. I don't know if you should be happy he uses your picture or mad that he took it without asking you first

I would definitely report it to ebay then contact the seller and tell him to take it off. You might mention to him about the report to ebay. That may get him thinking about his standing and feedback.

Did you buy it from him? Otherwise, it is false advert because his grille is not represented in the pix. Moreover, he watermarked the pix so now it IS his pix.

Brilliant Silver CLK 320
Lmao that happened on my integrated tail light video on my motorcycle! A seller used my video from youtube, I didn't mind though because I got view count profits from it.

Not that it's cool to use someone else's pictures or anything, and also not defending the seller, but just so everyone does know. Once you post anything on a public forum, anyone has the authority to save and reuse that picture. What they can not do is alter the photo if it is marked from the get go.
