Default Plans Copiers on Ebay

Alright, let's put that to bed.
It ain't worth all that.

But I'm right! ;^)
I don't copy plans and then sell them, no. Actually, I think I did, once, the Capitol Flamingo seaplane, from the thirties. I had the kit, and I sold it, but the plan was not in the Pond Catalog, so I made copy, as it is a mighty rare bird! Who has the rights to Capitol Models? I tried, but never found out. Public domain, most likely.
Kinkos...the one on 27th street never gives me a problem, the one on Lexington will not make copies. According to their store policy, they may NOT make copies of any copyrighted material without written permission, as they can and will be held liable if somebody sues. But how well that is enforced, well, I guess it is up to the store manager. I am sure I am not the only person who has been turned away at some point.
I wonder where the Ebay theives are getting their plans done? Certainly not at kinkos, at the $3/a foot I pay...
