The photo has more then likely been copied from my Facebook profile. Also the current owner is using the same picture as his Facebook profile picture.This is in regards to my old ute that has popped up again for sale for $30k, was $32k about 4-5 months ago, he used the same picture in the paper then to. I sold it for $23,500k, I believe its had a Nizpro Kit fitted to it?This is the picture in question: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig. Member 563 Member For: 17y 6m 7d Gender: Male Location: Sunshine Coast QLD Posted 28/03/10 10:52 AM Share Posted 28/03/10 10:52 AM (edited) Once its out on the web it really isnt your property anymore mate, unless you have some kind of copyright thing going and you are a professional photographer.Here is a couple of questions for you. How do you think he feels about you having a photo of HIS ute on your facebook page? After all, that is his property now ( the ute that is). Do you think he would take offence at you posting a pic of HIS ute in this thread? Does the fact that you used to own it give you the right to post pics of it now that it is someone elses property?Kinda cuts both ways, don't you think?
