Perhaps someone can enlighten me on this. How does not get killed off as a copyright infringement?

I understand the people who cut out pictures from S&D and other magazines posing them as prints but this seems a little different as they indicate it was done with a color printer, evidence of a blatant knock off.

Because no one from Obey has contacted Ebay in an official capacity. If they do that, it's poof-gone.

Obey might call to get it removed from Ebay but Shep would still sign it if you stood in line with it. ;-)
