I'm still highly doubtful that it's worth the time, effort, expense and health risks to 'process' stuff at home; which it looks like people are doing after being convinced that they will make massive income from it.

Anyone here has ever been in the business of gold recovery?

Never understood if it really make $$$.

Anyway would be nice to have them on wall, may start to rip cores to make a mirror, would explain razor cuts by "then there the core I was mirrored in had a chipped corner...".

Maybe this guy has a film camera, and doesn't want to spend for film and photo development?

Silver halide is expensive now Wink

If you add watermarks to all of your photos (a lot of work), he will still hotlink your images, but at least you could tell ebay to take down his sale listing.

I did not see the photo from first auction.

The photo in the auction you linked today does not look like a watermark is visible - maybe my vision is too poor.

Ask him for a $5 use fee or you'll have the auction taken down Very Happy

Might as well make a buck or two!

well, the answer was "get lost". eBay doesn't seem to give a damn, too - unfortunately.

It wouldn't hurt to report this seller to eBay - there is "Report this item" link at the bottom of the auction page. You may also try to report the seller using VeRO program:

http://pages.ebay.com/help/tp/vero-rights-owner.html

I don't know if you can use it because it requires faxing some data to eBay.

That would be the second time (first was the Italian guy), and I'm pretty sure I'm not "big" enough not to be ignored.
