Is this a viable way to track one's purchases over the long run? I'm asking mostly in terms of salvaging the seller's images. I know that "Purchase History" is not good, since e-bay will eventually remove images. Report this Post to the Staff

edweather Pillar of the Community United States 7375 Posts	Posted 11/14/2016 08:47 am If I buy a coin on ebay, are the images mine too, or do I have to ask permission from the seller to use them? I was under the impression that I had to ask permission if I wanted to resell the coin and use their photos. Maybe if I just wanted the photos for my own use and not to resell, it would be ok just to keep them. Ed Report this Post to the Staff

Many sellers will be happy to let you use them if you ask. -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff
