Norm; I don't mind an occassional use of one of my scans from my website ... but my primary objection is that I have invested much time and money for equipment on publishing my scans and I don't think that those who are too lazy ... or too cheap to buy their own equipment ... should repeatedly steal from other folk's efforts.

Wanna sell on ebay? That's fine; but purchase your own scanner or digital camera and don't depend upon using other folk's scans.

In addition, taking images from other sources is not approved by ebay because the stolen image one uses in their ebay description is not accurate because the item being sold may be of inferior quality to the item being shown.

When I bid on ebay, I expect to receive the item that is illustrated ... not somebody else's image.
