Get a load of this story: I sold an item to this buyer about a year and a half ago who copied it and reproduced it to sell on Ebay. He thought he was clever because he changed his user name and then bought materials with which to reproduce the item so I wouldn't notice. He then opened up a new account and started selling it. I noticed because it was obviously mine and all it took was a little research on my part to put the pieces together. I am no detective and have a pretty short attention span.
I informed Ebay about this and they said they would investigate. He stopped selling it shortly afterwards...until he changed his username yet again. I didn't notice this clever rouse for some time and of course hit the roof. I once again had to speak to Ebay and about 9 different morons who who had a hard time understanding the problem until finally someone told me they would "take him down". Well, that was 2 weeks ago and the clever rogue is still at it unhindered by the watchful eye of the ever-caring Ebay team. Another phone call and I was told not to worry, he would be dealt with, and that Ebay takes these sorts of things very seriously. I asked why the person, who obviously must use his real name to open a sellers account, just simply be booted off Ebay? He doesn't produce anything of his own and doesn't ad anything to the community. I didn't get an answer to that, but was reassured he would be dealt with harshly. That was a week ago. Nothing happened.
All the digital footprints are there connecting this guy to this, but no one apparently cares to connect the dots. What the hell is wrong here? This clown sells one thing and one thing only, my item that I made.
