Is this anyone here? (SVX eBay auction using MY photo)

Is this anyone here? (SVX eBay auction using MY photo).

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Subar...spagenameZWDVW

If it is, please remove that picture from your auction immediately.

It is not a picture of the actual car for sale and you do NOT own the rights to that photo.

To everyone else here, if you know who this is, I'd appreciate hearing about it here.

And, if anyone knows how to actually reach someone at eBay, I'd like to have this auction deleted unless the picture is removed.

Thanks.

Dunno who it is, but you can flag it on ebay, and they will be notified and look into it and contact the seller regarding it.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, scotch in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA !!!!!

With the stupidity of the advertising I would say it's not someone from here.

No, only his pic #1, the gallery photo with the text included.
The original is actually in my locker here, and is the pic on the link in my sig, lol!

I have reported it, and also spoke (typed?) with someone on live help. I don't know what they will do, eBay has proven not to be very concerned with crap like this in the past.
I have also sent a note to the seller, asking it to be removed.

That's interesting Michael.

You have the boot lid and spoiler pearl white? Looks nice.

And I'm glad to see you have your rims on the correct sides, whereas Dr Jim USA Dr Jim has them on backways!!

Also one of those information pages looks a lot like it came off Joe Spitz's pages, and he does not allow copying.

Go for him!

Joe

Well the auction's ended. Wierd though, someone took the "Buy it Now" for $9000. Hella high price. This was with a previous bid of only $5,500, and by a person with 0 feedback. Suspect?

No, that's correct for this model.

With the trunk lid white instead of black, the car is lighter at the back.
