Ebay for sale fraudulant use of image
#6976 - 11/13/05 09:37 AM (24.81.158.239)

Just wanted to inform you guys that people are using images of Calfee bikes in Ebay ads without permission. Here is a recent example of a seller on Ebay who is using MY bike in his sale. It has been reported.

Beware Calfee owners!

Apparently E-bay responded quickly for the item was deleted already when I clicked the link this Sunday afternoon. There are a lot of low-life's who cheat others and steal without a blink to line their own pockets. Obviously someone who is using a different picture of an item to show what he/she is selling is doing so for a fraudlent reason. Since my bike had been stolen I've set up automatic emails for any time someone uses the name Calfee in a sale on E-bay.

Yes, thankfully it was removed quickly. I truly despise those who commit fraud.

Just for reference, what pic did he use? I've noticed a pretty substantial jump in the number of Calfee ebay listings.

That's why I only deal locally. CL has a good one right now:

too bad it's too big for me.

There's another one, 1750 for a full bike.
