[QUOTE="subzero, post: 459807, member: 9185"] This is a quote from this ebay guide iv'e just found on repro weapons... "[i]We have complained for over a decade to eBay, Hasbro, and LucasFilm, LTD. about Star Wars fakes. No one seems to have any interest pursuing action against small time dealers and sellers who have no assets to go after in the first place for selling fake, fraudulently produced items. eBay will only take-down a listing if you can prove YOU are the copyright, patent, or trademark holder. So if Hasbro or Lucasfilm, LTD has no interest, neither does eBay. We are trying to help buyers beware of these issues. We have previously argued on our website that we believe that there are legal issues for knowingly sell counterfeit items; engaging in a conspiracy to defraud buyers, and selling "repo" items is a violation of registered copyright and trademark laws[/i]." http://www.ebay.co.uk/gds/Vintage-Star-Wars-Weapons-/10000000012790034/g.html [/QUOTE]
