Yep, dealers who steal others' descriptions should be considered a low
breed. If you report this plagiarism to ebay they will shut down the
auction and mark a strike against the dealer. I say, report them
immediately regardless of who they are and ebay will act upon it. I finally
had to copyright protect my descriptions and there are still those who feel
this information is free for the taking. When discovered, I report them
without warning. There is nothing worse than doing hours worth of research
just to have some lazy fool steal your work, word-for-word.

My thoughts,

Adam
