[Leica] Found on e-Bay

[h_arche at yahoo.com (H. Ball Arche)]

Personally I don't think the seller has done anything out of line.

In the last few years whenever I've gone to buy a new lens I've researched 
it by looking at galleries that have the lens I'm interested in as a tag. 
Effectively, when you put that gallery together as being shot with that 
lens, you created a sort of billboard for it in a very public place. 

I don't think you should expect to be asked for permission if somebody else 
wants to make a link to your site, although it would have been nice had he 
given you a credit line in his ebay listing.
