No, that is the wrong way to go about it. You're actually violating eBay rules if you try to subvert the auction by contacting bidders. I have had this happen too many times to count. I have even had it happen while my original listing was running, and the funny thing is quite a few times it was experienced eBayers doing the stealing. It's business not beanbag and I take my work seriously. It sometimes takes me several minutes to come up with my witty desrciptions. OK, not normally, but always when I use them pollysillahbik words. That's hard work, I don't take kindly to some mouth breather absconding with my bon mots and expertise. Theft of intellectual property is one of the few issues eBay takes seriously. I have implemented methods so that content in my auction listing is protected from pilfering, but in the past I routinely contacted eBay and the offending listing was removed, too sweet. Do it here, some of your description is plainly copied, that is pretty clear. I never dealt with the thieving dirt bag personally. Tell it to the judge is my motto, right after fight dirty and never order seafood on Monday. Don't eff with a man's livelihood. The wife, sure, but never the livelihood. El midnite-o
