This is the first I have heard of this on eBay. I have a contact in the
FBI, give me more details and I will pass this along.

Is there anyone actively working on trying to stop an active US map thief
who is selling on ebay?
I've reported my suspicions with respect to this person on two different
occasions, with no follow ups. I note that he has become much bolder and
is now going after non-government serials and turning up with increasing
early and rare material.
Its fairly clear that he's stolen over 10,000 maps from American
institutional collections. Is there anyone interested in his activities?
