Ok, I don't know how I stumbled across this video, but is this a case of she stole someone's pictures and they're getting revenge? If so too funny!

That is just too funny! Good thing I'd swallowed my coffee *before* I got to the bottom of the page.

Hey, don't look now, but that pic is hosted by iPIX. That means the seller actually uploaded this pic when listing. Doesn't make much sense, does it?

It was very common at one time on eBay to post a photo of your pet in your auction. This isn't a stolen image at all.

Ummm, bidsbids, I agree this is not a stolen pic, but did you happen to notice this particular pet is making an obsence paw jester?

I'm up for humor now and then, and I'm not a prude or anything, but I think if there were other identical items in a different auction which actually had a picture of the widget and not a cat giving me "the finger", I'd go with the professional looking auction.

If you showed the photo to most men in a locker room thay'd swear it was the funniest thing on the planet and the seller was smart to post it. Tastes differ and it's like those popular car decals where the little kid is peeing. Most think it's stupid but there are millions of those decals on vehicles.

i sent the rip off artist a quick email- " hey nice cat pic" <p>

Here is her reply- <p>

"Thanx, I thot the radical cat pic was pretty neat. Got it off Net Laughter.
We have an iguana who did the same thing, only her finger was longer. Never
posted it on the Net though."

How ironic!!!

Cute but stupid, this seller will have his auction eventually shutdown by ebay.

Someone will go crying to ebay, regarding this matterr!
