While checking on a few things I had listed yesterday, I noticed that one of my items had a bid retracted.

I looked into it and saw that the buyer retracted his bid so he could bid on an identical item at a lower price.

Looking at the item I noticed that the seller had copied my description and was using my images and my image hosting.

I suppose I could have contacted him and asked him to remove his listing or contacted eBay so he would get a warning but I thought I'd have a little fun instead.

Did I mention he was using my image hosting................
