    Aug 22, 2010 - Ebay seller "uncledacian", selling my Raiders map on Ebay. #1

    Anyone know who this seller is?
    Is he a member here?

    Every year I catch at least half a dozen creeps selling my map on Ebay , and end up having to remove the auction.

    They also sell the Indiana Jones Universtity ID as well as Stargate and X-Files ID badges. Are those taken from here as well??

    Probably taken from the Paper props forums.

    Yeah, the creep factor is through the roof this week.

    BTW, I just looked in the Raiders paper prop thread...Doesn't look like those ID badges came from here.

    Yeah, I noticed another seller sells a different version on Ebay. But this looks like the work of the guy who sells the Henry Jones Diplomas on Ebay. I don't know that sellers name though.

    Ok... here is a dumb question, and sorry if it is an easy answer ...also sorry to temporarily hijack this thread...

    But the ID is a Hamilton University ID..... and another seller is selling the Barnett College ID...... but I thought Indy taught at Marshall College.

    Again, if I am dumb and missing something from the story line, I apologize

    Darth, I stumbled across that Map thread last week and was wondering how someone else had your personal prop making files in the first place?

    Public Domain is one thing, but giving someone the tools to go into business for themselves on the sweat of your brow is just wrong.

    Well, I offered a free copy many years ago on the RPF (With the specific request not to sell the map for profit)....As soon as I saw them being sold on Ebay, I pulled the image.
    Then Adamata offered to host the image at his site with a copyright tag and a disclamer against selling the image for profit (Along with an ecryption download code which we gave out only to people we trusted. )

    For a while I hadn't seen anyone selling the map on Ebay, so when the image was posted on the paper props thread, I didn't really mind.

    Actually, it's gotten to the point where I don't really mind getting these auctions pulled.... The auction gets pulled and the seller gets and infraction against his account.

    I already sent in a Vero report to Ebay...They usually pull the auction within 24 hrs.
