Merry Christmas - I'm being ripped off
 

Hey look what I got from a friend looking out for me:

eBay ripoff

Fucking funny how fast huh? shit, I haven't even posted that set on my site yet - goes up christmas day - up mine

Fucken dirt bags...

Man o man.

This biz is going to complete shit.

WTF, man it never ends.

fucking unbelievable!

The douche has a 99.2% positive rating... :(

Are you saying that you are being ripped off by your models selling prints you gave them or some unkonwn person that happens to have them?
Are you trying to get some board presence that everyone wants your stuff?
Grow up

have their acct. shut down

Yes he is saying he is being ripped off, I run Crissy's site, we have to deal with this crap non stop :(

People should want his stuff. Red is one of the best "Glam" photographers IMHO.

Its worth every penny.
Funny how a guy with "GLAM MOney" sig knows how to appeal to people that can make em money.

its a thief in the UK that cropped a pic - (insert name-calling here)

AND - notice that there is one bid on there already - so someone wants to buy it from him

report it. contact the seller & advise seller you will prosecute for copyright infringement

So report them to ebay.

already reported thanks - just takes the wind out of my sails and sales :b

if the set hasn't even been put up on your site yet where did he get it from?

are those fake buyers on ebay who are going 'fantastic - prompt delivery' etc?

We have it up on Crissymoran.com

Red,
I am in the UK until tomorrow. My partner is here until the 26th. If someone is ripping you off then tell us how to help. We get ripped off all the time. Assholes all over the place use our images to sell things that we have nothing to do with. I know how it feels.
Sorry

oh that splains it. do you sell glossy prints of Crissy on her site?

Nope we sure don't.

I expect it nowadays unfortunately - some people just can't do anything themselves - they have to steal from others and that's just sad. I'm going to ask Satan to put the bad mojo on this UK dweeb - haha.

Maybe we should - seems people want to buy - hit me on email about this.

Not surprising.. Scum bags are every where :(

thanks but the only way to handle this with ebay is to go thru the complaint ritual - hopefully this way they will track this seller as a thief and kick him/her off

They just turn up again and again and again.
I am sorry that you have to deal with this, we all do.
I do know how it feels.
If you reconsider let me know.

I see my stuff all over the place. . . ya get used to it

that's fucked up :mad:

Always a weasel lurking in the background waiting to capitalize

That fucking sucks! Report his ass and file a lawsuit. He has a shitload of sells on Ebay and positive feedback. If you sue then he has to forfiet what he has made on Ebay and it won't be hard for you to win the suit.

Fuckers have to learn not to steal shit from hard working people!!! :mad:
