We believe eBay profits from IP rights infringements (copyright theft), and does so knowingly, only removing infringing items reluctantly, if at all.

What's Wrong?
We invest a great deal of time, effort, and cost into creating some of the best photographic coin images on the internet. We strongly object when lazy and dishonest people decide to use them without a by your leave or thanks, doing so in competition with us.
Copyright theft is dishonest. We recommend you avoid doing business with dishonest dealers.
This particular eBay seller not only stole our high quality copyright photographs of a complete boxed set of these coins, but failed to inform potential buyers that the coins in the photographs were not the ones he owns, or that they will be bidding on. This is deception.
Sadly, it is also typical of eBay!
The photographs he used were taken from our 2002 Commonwealth Games Two Pound Coins page.
Price
He used a starting price of £30 each for his first set of three auctions.
Presumably because these failed to attract any bids, he then reduced the starting price to £20 each.
This will cost him about £2 per time in listing fees.
