hey wa...my idol....I've got a question for you if you don't mind. What do you wash your bobcats and foxes in to get that wonderfully fluffy fur?

What the heck ? I'm not sure how I feel about this ... they do state that it will not be the actual mounts shown, but I don't feel it's right to use another taxidermists' pictures without permission. Plus, how on earth is someone supposed to know what kind of quality they're going to get if they can't see a picture of THAT taxidermists work? It's a stupid idea.

I don't want to cause a fight so I probably won't say anything but I don't care for it.

They even went so far as to erase "Amy'sTaxidermy" in the bottom right corner.

Looks like they unlisted everything. I thought using other people's pics was against ebay rules? Amy I can't believe they whited-out your name. Look what it says on the bottom:

Certain images and/or photos used in this template are the copyrighted property of JupiterImages and are being used with permission under license.

Time to start watermarking your images. It looks tacky but what can you do.

That is just plain crazy. I had never seen those listings until WA brought it up here.
I can't believe some moron would just white out the original name on the photo and
think someone wouldn't recognize it. Wow! You just never know do ya?!!

Nice coon codi.  This happened to us a couple years ago.  We just let it run to see what it braught.LOL  If the seller cant post any pics of his or her own work then they will get caught up with any way when someone buys a nice cat on ebay and receives a hunk of junk.  You never know these days.

I guess it's a compliment that they've chosen your work...but that is like stealing.  Down at the bottom it says:  "Certain images and/or photos used in this template are the copyrighted property of JupiterImages and are being used with permission under license."  Does that mean they've copyrighted your pictures?!  They say that these are some of the sellers favorite poses...doesn't say it's their own work...but still...it's misleading & wrong.  Doesn't e-bay care about this kind of thing?  I know it's a huge market & sellers have their ratings things to sorta help buyers...but still.

I don't think I would have a problem with anyone selling something that they bought from me as long as they gave ME credit for the work.  If he was trying to pass it as his own..he is a useless piece of dog $&*@
