I've had something similar happen.  Someone was auctioning off a Rom
action figure using a picture from my site
(http://home.hiwaay.net/~lkseitz/comics/Rom/).  I contacted the seller
and he added text to his auction stating that the image was not the
actual figure he was selling and, I believe, included the URL of my
page.  So not everyone on eBay is unreasonable.

OTOH, I stamp all scans I make specifically for eBay with "lkseitz" (my
eBay i.d.) so others can't use them.  Or at least not claim that they
are theirs.
