Really p*ssed off!

Last night I received an email from a friend of a teacher who had been trying to purchase some teaching materials through Ebay. He contacted me because he recognised that several of the resources being sold were actually taken from the Primary Resources website and offered for sale with little or no alterations!

This is absolutely unacceptable! These resources have been freely contributed by other teachers to this site and now this teacher is making money by selling them. It's been very hard to track down how much of our stuff has been stolen in this manner but I've identified at least six items that have been repeatedly sold on Ebay that contain material directly lifted from this site.

Needless to say I've emailed the teacher to tell her to take the resources down and have gone through the copyright infringement complaints process with Ebay. If you're a regular user of Ebay then please keep your eyes open for this type of thing.

Primary Resources is a site dedicated to the free sharing of resources between teachers. We will take legal action if necessary to protect our copyright.
