Cjd223 Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 Reported. Same thing happened to my manuals today... Quote
TomF Posted October 26, 2016 Posted October 26, 2016 And new Offers for stolen Instructions from the same Seller http://www.ebay.de/itm/Lego-Star-Wars-Star-Destroyer-Venator-MOC-Modell-Bauteileliste-und-Bauplan/322303425701?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D39846%26meid%3D2d6291e420e4419aa29a3f076640b4d1%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D322291745284 Quote
Anio Posted October 27, 2016 Author Posted October 27, 2016 What is wrong with that guy... I reported the auction (and you are welcome to do the same). But is there a way to ask ebay to ban that guy for good ? Quote

Hold0511 Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 I have found that eBay are not that helpful in banning individuals plus its quite easy for them to re-register and carry on selling stolen IP sadly. I'm always happy to help report anyone and I do keep an eye out on the UK eBay for such things where I can. Quote
dmarkng Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 Yup... they don't really bother. You can easily find pirated goods too and they aren't really bothered by it. Even Amazon has stuff like that =/ Quote
Anio Posted December 21, 2016 Author Posted December 21, 2016 Hi there ! And now thieves are poping on less popular website than ebay. Here, on a NL website : http://www.marktplaats.nl/a/kinderen-en-baby-s/speelgoed-duplo-en-lego/m1119242540-star-wars-lego-ucs-venator-class-star-destroyer-moc.html?c=8c285449651fa109c354bbabe740c1b&previousPage=lr&pos=29 The guy says he can provide (steal) most of the instructions of my designs... What a jerk. I do not know that website and so just sent "Rapporteer deze advertentie" request. Not sure it will work. If some Dutch AFOL knows that website, help would be very appreciated. Thanks for reading, Régis Edit : Tom, a Dutch Lego fan told me that that page had to be used : http://help.marktplaats.nl/help/contactuspage Then, select "Veilig Andelen & Internetoplitching", then "Melding Verdachte adverteeeder".

masterX244 Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 All parts ordered... Building this one now :) Quote
VaderFan2187 Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Always hate it when thieves steal hardworking people's work... Quote
cavegod Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Never mind that Anios BB8 is on presell by Lepin! Quote

Kristof Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 Agreed on that positive note. Although I know it's maybe hard to get any good feeling. It's really sick what they do. Quote
masterX244 Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 (edited) found a error on step 169(page 175). you somehow got that angle connector part in dark red there while the parts list for BL and rebrickable both show it in bright red... Edited January 4, 2017 by masterX244 Quote
MatthewPChoy Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 How would I go about purchasing a set of such instructions? And before I purchase the instructions, could someone send me a parts list, so I can calculate whether I can afford it? Thanks. Quote

Parts list is also on Rebrickable: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/anio/venator-star-destroyer For going cheaper search this post for the magnetless mod. optionally replacing LBG levers with old light gray levers helps, too Another warning in advance: those 2x4's with holes are easy to confuse with normal 2x4 plates but thats also a issue with officail Lego instructions. Edit: Build done. Inclusive a few snafus and fubars on the plates. (too many to notice it immediately that you screwed up) Progress Pics: http://nplusc.de/ucsven/ Edited January 6, 2017 by masterX244 Quote
